Fruit Salsa
1lb of strawberries
1/2lb of raspberries
1 lemon
2 Granny Smith apples
3 tbsp seedless preserves (I use black raspberry)
Cinnamon Crisps
10 large tortillas
Cooking spray
Cinnamon
Sugar
Zest the lemon and set aside, then squeeze out 3 tablespoons of lemon juice into a bowl. Peel and medium chop apples and add to the lemon juice coating the apples. Medium chop the strawberries and add to the apples. Add the raspberries, uncut, because they will break apart. Add the lemon zest and preserves. Stir well and let stand at room temp 15 minutes before serving.
(Original recipe includes 2 kiwi *I left them out for allergy reasons*)
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Combine cinnamon and sugar. Work with 3 tortillas at a time. Spray and lightly dust cinnamon sugar on both sides of the tortilla. Keep them stacked and use a pizza cutter to slice them into strips. Cook at 350 degrees for 8-11 minutes, until you see the edges of the chips start to curl. Serve with salsa. Enjoy!! :)
Mango Salsa
· 1 mango - peeled, seeded, and chopped
· 1/4 cup finely chopped red bell pepper
· 1 green onion, chopped
· 2 tablespoons chopped cilantro
· 1 fresh jalapeno chile pepper, finely chopped
· 2 tablespoons lime juice
· 1 tablespoon lemon juice
Directions
- In a medium bowl, mix mango, red bell pepper, green onion, cilantro, jalapeno, lime juice, and lemon juice. Cover, and allow to sit at least 30 minutes before serving.
Tomato, Basil, Garlic, Brie Pasta
· ¾ pound Mozzarella cheese
· 4 medium ripe-as-can-be tomatoes
· 2 medium cloves garlic
· ½ cup loosely packed basil leaves, cleaned and dried
· ½ cup plus 2 tablespoons excellent olive oil
· Kosher or sea salt and freshly ground pepper
· 1 pound bowtie pasta
1. Put the Brie in the freezer for about 20 minutes to firm up a little. This will make it easier to cut when the time comes.
2. Roughly chop the tomatoes and put them in a large serving bowl. Finely chop the garlic and add it to the bowl. Chiffonade or roughly chop the basil and add that to the bowl too. Pour in the olive oil and add a generous amount of salt and pepper. Gently stir everything together.
3. Once the Brie is firm enough, cut it into 1/2-inch cubes and add these to the bowl. Gently fold to combine the cheese with the rest of the ingredients. Cover the bowl and let it sit at room temperature for at least 2, and up to 8, hours -- the longer the better.
4. When you are ready to eat, bring a large pot of heavily salted water to a boil and cook the pasta until just al dente. Strain it and tip it into the bowl with the sauce. Fold everything together until it is well combined, the Brie has begun to melt, and the pasta is slicked with cheese and tomato goodness. Serve immediately with a big green salad.
