GINGERED FRUIT SALSA

Sweet and spicy and everything nice is what this fruity salsa is all about. The small amount of fresh ginger won’t overpower the salsa, but it will give it a hint of spice, which I absolutely love.

2 cups finely chopped, peeled apples

2 cups chopped strawberries

1 teaspoon finely grated orange peel

¼ cup fresh orange juice

3 tablespoons brown sugar

1 teaspoon chopped, peeled fresh ginger

¾ teaspoon ground cinnamon

Tortilla or pita chips, for serving

Toss together the apples and strawberries with the orange peel and juice, brown sugar, ginger, and cinnamon in a serving bowl. Refrigerate the salsa for at least 30 minutes before serving it. Serve with tortilla or pita chips.

MAKES 6 TO 8 SERVINGS.
