Fruit Salsa With Cinnamon Pita Chips
"Easy and delicious! Try chopping the strawberries with an egg chopper by putting the strawberry in one way, cut then turn the other way and cut. It's a real time saver! This is my lower-sugar verson of this very popular recipe. Take it to a potluck or a BBQ and it will be an instant hit! Make sure you take copies of the recipe to share."

ingredients
-
Fruit Salsa
- 2 kiwi fruits (peeled and diced)
- 2 golden delicious apples (peeled, cored and diced)
- 8 ounces raspberries (each cut into quarters)
- 1 lb strawberry, chopped
- 3 tablespoons sugar-free preserves, any fruit flavor
-
Pita Chips
- 1 cup sugar (Splenda? I use sugar)
- 2 teaspoons cinnamon
- 8 pita pocket bread (you can also use 10 inch flour tortillas cut into wedges or a combination of both!)
- butter-flavored cooking spray
directions
- In a large bowl, thoroughly mix the fruit and fruit preserves.
- Cover and chill in the refrigerator at least 15 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- Mix the sugar and cinnamon in a bowl large enough that you can dredge the pita chips.
- For thinner pita chips split each pita round in half so that you have two pita circles.
- Spray each side of the chip with butter flavored cooking spray (I Can't Believe it's not Butter in the butter section of the grocery store is zero calories).
- Stack 4 pitas at a time and cut them into chip size with the pizza cutter or a sharp knife.
- Put chips in the bowl a few at a time and dredge them in the cinnamon sugar.
- Place chip on baking dish.
- Bake in the preheated oven 8 to 10 minutes.
- Allow to cool and serve with fruit salad.

I grew up in Tucson but moved to Colorado in 1989 and live in a household with my husband, Dad, daughter and 3-year old twin granddaughters. Our 8-year old grandson spends 2 nights a week with us. All of that adds up to often difficult menu ideas to met everyone's tastes.
Zaar is very addicting and I love trying the recipes I find here. I like to find recipes of people that I see are still active on Zaar and love it when I hear back from the Chef after I review the recipe. Everytime someone reviews one of my recipes, I like to find one of theirs to make and review as quickly as possible. It's a way for me to find great chefs I don't know yet too!
My husband has high blood sugar so we try to watch our carbs, but it is not easy because we love them so much!
I was diagnosed with brain tumors in 2005 and so far have had 5 surgeries that have left my eyelid droopy. I hope to have a surgery that will correct that soon!! There is still one tumor they have not removed but my wonderful doctor James Garrity at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester MN says they will leave it alone until or if it ever causes problems!
