I’m so excited to share this fun (and nutritious) twist on chips and salsa with you!
This delightful combination brings together the sweetness of pineapple, the tanginess of kiwi, and the warmth of cinnamon in a salsa that is perfect for snacking or as a light appetizer. This recipe is fantastic to make during the summer season, as citrus fruits (like pineapple and kiwi), are packed with vitamin C, a powerful antioxidant that can help neutralize harmful free radicals and reduce photodamage.
So, grab a chip, scoop up a generous portion of this Pineapple-Kiwi Salsa, and savor the flavors… transporting you to a tropical paradise, right in the comfort of your own home.
