    Strawberry-Mango-Salsa-With-Cinnamon-Tortilla-Chips

    We recently had a Snow family reunion and I needed to bring a dish to share. While that might seem like an easy decision, I debated about what to bring for weeks. When you’re a food blogger people’s expectations of what you make are elevated. The pressure really increased when my sweet Aunt Marilyn posted on Facebook that she wanted to sit by me so she could eat what I made. (Love you Auntie!)

    I make a perfect pasta salad, my Peanut Butter Nutella Cookie Cups are always a hit, and I even thought about making Dara’s Savory Mango Chutney & Cheddar Cheese Palmiers, “Elephant Ears”, which are fabulous. In the end, I decided to make Strawberry Mango Salsa and Cinnamon Tortilla Chips. It’s a colorful, light, refreshing summer appetizer and when I make it for my family it disappears as quickly as I can baked the chips.

    Cinnamon-Tortilla-Chips

    Our Best Bites has a great tutorial for making fruit salsas with different fruits and I incorporated many of their tips in my Strawberry Mango Salsa.

    They also have a recipe for cinnamon tortilla chips using cooked flour tortillas, but I’m crazy about the Tortilla Land uncooked flour tortillas. They are thinner and bake up light and crispy. If you haven’t tried them yet, you need to. I bought mine at Costco, but I’ve seen them at Smith’s and other grocery stores. Sophistimom posted a Cinnamon Tortilla Chip recipe using uncooked tortillas and my recipe is kind of a combination of the two.

    This recipe makes enough fruit salsa and chips for a party.  If you’re making them for a smaller group just divide the recipe in half. Although if you decide to make extra, the salsa is still fresh and delicious the next day. I keep the chips crisp by laying them on a paper towel and sealing them in a Ziploc bag.

    Ingredients

    Strawberry Mango Salsa

    • 2 medium size mangos diced
    • 1 pint strawberries diced
    • zest of 1 lime
    • juice of 1 lime
    • 1 tablespoon agave nectar add more or less depending on how sweet your fruit is
    • 1 tablespoon fresh chopped parsley adds a nice contrasting color

    Cinnamon Tortilla Chips

    • 12 [Tortilla Land] uncooked flour tortillas
    • 4 tablespoons butter softened
    • 4 tablespoons granulated sugar
    • 1 ½ teaspoons ground cinnamon

    Instructions

    • Strawberry Mango Salsa
    • Combine all ingredients in a medium size bowl and chill before serving.
    • Cinnamon Tortilla Chips
    • Preheat oven to 400º. Combine cinnamon and sugar in a small bowl.
    • Spread a teaspoon of butter on each tortilla and sprinkle cinnamon sugar mixture evenly over tortillas.
    • Using a pizza or a pastry cutter, cut each tortilla in to eight wedges. Place wedges on baking sheets lined with parchment paper (sugar side up). You can bake more than one tray at a time, but be sure and rotate them half way through the baking time. I bake 16 wedges per baking sheet.
    • Bake for 5 -10 minutes, or until the tortilla chips are crisp and golden brown. Do not underbake, they need to be crisp when you take them out of the oven. (You can also bake them at 350º which results in a flatter less puffed chip, but takes at least double the amount of baking time.)

      I just made this for a snack later tonight. Mint leaves would be really good in it, too. I don’t have any and am still contemplating the parsley. Not sure my boys will like it with parsley. Maybe I’ll just put a little bit chopped really finely in it. 😉

      Mangos add so much texture and sweetness. This looks delish. We also love the tortilla land tortillas. I bet they are so good with cinnamon sugar. You have another great recipe.

      I will have to try this! Sounds like a salsa I would love(especially with these chips)! I don’t care for tomato based(regular) salsa.

      Oh yum, Barbara, this looks outstanding. Something other than jam and shortcake to make with those yummy summertime strawberries 🙂

      That salsa is so pretty Barbara, and I love the combination of flavors. I actually just made cinnamon sugar chips today, next time I’ll have to add the salsa to go along with them!

      I love tortilla chips. Even better when they are a bit sweet and served with fruit. I loved the post about your family reunion. Such a great story.

      Barb, you always come up with the most amazing, mouth-watering goodies, and this one is no exception. I can almosy taste the cinnmaon tortilla chips with a huge dip/scoop of that colorful, fresh, juicy strawberry, mango salsa making it heavy in the hand. No double dip needed, mine would be loaded! Bookmarked 🙂

      I love this sweet version of salsa. It sounds delicious. I think I would eat all of those cinnamon chips all by myself!

      I have a neighbor who, as soon as he gets to any neighborhood party, finds me and asks me what I brought so he can be sure to get some before it’s gone. It just tickles me every time he does it. I’m not sure if he really thinks my food is that much better or if he just likes to see the big grin on my face when he asks, but either way, I love it!

      I also love sweet salsas and this one looks absolutely amazing!!!

      Can’t wait to try it…Maybe at the neighborhood barbecue this weekend?

      xxoo,

      Coming over from Laura’s blog. I LOVE fruit salsa. Your recipe looks delicious! I’ve never tried making it with agave nectar before.

      I love when people make things they are normally savory into something sweet. It just makes my day! This is awesome! Just amazing. I love the cinnamon chips and the salsa with the strawberries, I have done mango before but not mango and berries so this is so cool!

      Do you think you could make an apple cinnamon salsa with these chips?

        Taste of Home has an apple salsa recipe that looks great. It includes strawberries and kiwis. I think you’d need some softer fruits so it’s not quite so crunchy. Let me know if you give it a try.

      This looks fabulous. If I were sub some mint leave for the parsley, my kids would eat this for dessert.

      What a delicious and creative idea, Barbara. I’ve seen uncooked tortillas in the grocery store but didn’t pay much attention. This reminds me of the left over pie crust strips sprinkled with cinnamon and sugar that my grandmother used to make. I would want to sit next to you too at a picnic.
