Ingredients
  

1 cup fresh pineapple, diced into small pieces

1 cup strawberries, hulled and diced

1 medium mango, peeled and diced

1 medium kiwi, peeled and diced

1/4 cup red onion, finely chopped

1 jalapeño pepper, seeded and minced (optional, for a spicy kick)

2 tablespoons fresh lime juice

1 tablespoon honey or agave syrup

1 tablespoon fresh mint leaves, finely chopped

For the Cinnamon Sugar Tortilla Chips:

4 small flour tortillas

2 tablespoons melted butter or coconut oil

1/4 cup granulated sugar

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Instructions
 

Prepare the Fruit Salsa: In a large mixing bowl, combine the diced pineapple, strawberries, mango, kiwi, red onion, and minced jalapeño (if using). Toss gently to incorporate all the ingredients.

    Add Flavor: Drizzle the fresh lime juice and honey (or agave syrup) over the fruit mixture. Carefully fold the ingredients together until evenly coated.

      Add Freshness: Stir in the chopped mint to add a refreshing burst of flavor. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. This allows the flavors to meld beautifully.

        Make the Chips: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to prepare for baking the tortilla chips.

          Coat the Tortillas: Use a pastry brush to apply the melted butter (or coconut oil) to both sides of each tortilla, ensuring they're thoroughly coated.

            Mix Cinnamon Sugar: In a small bowl, combine the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon. Once mixed, evenly sprinkle this cinnamon sugar blend over both sides of the coated tortillas.

              Cut and Bake: Slice each tortilla into wedges (like pizza slices) and arrange them in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes or until the chips are crispy and golden brown, flipping halfway through for even cooking.

                Serve: Once baked, remove the chips from the oven, letting them cool slightly. Serve the warm cinnamon sugar tortilla chips alongside the chilled tropical fruit salsa for a delightful contrast.
