Strawberry Salsa with Cinnamon Chips

SAVE ✓ SAVED ADD TO MEAL PLAN PRINT

Here’s a recipe that’s sure to please during strawberry season! This is a sweet and minty take on salsa, using fruit. Strawberries serve as the base, and your favorite fruit ingredients can be added to make the taste more vibrant and the appearance more colorful. I made this with my Kids Cooking class and we even added starfruits and mangoes, which was extra YUM!! The chips can be made using your favorite whole wheat tortillas, or substitute a gluten-free tortilla chip like corn tortillas. Use the smallest dusting of cinnamon to add a little flavor to the chips. This is a great stepping stone to more savory salsas, once kids experience how fun it is to dip the chips!! In my opinion, you should not skip the mint. It really gives it that something special!
