I haven’t exactly been the best so far this summer about my eating habits. I was on such a good roll a while back until I got the flu and it flew straight out the window. Most people don’t want to eat when they get sick but that’s all I want to do. 
Seriously… what else is there to do when you’re stuck in the house because you’re basically quarantined from society for a week?!
This fruit salsa right here is the best of both worlds. It’s healthy AND satisfies your sweet tooth craving… a win-win situation! 
And besides, I totally needed to re-photograph this fruit salad when I made it. 
(Can you say over-exposed or what???)

The homemade cinnamon chips are crazy easy to make. It’s simply brushing flour tortillas with butter, sprinkling a mixture of cinnamon, sugar and nutmeg on them, slicing and baking.
All of that delicious fruit with a little honey, lime juice and chopped fresh mint is a total flavor EXPLOSION.
Enjoy!
