Fruit Salsa

This is one of the easiest salsas I have found, and my cooking classes went mad for it. You can use any variety of fruit, as long as you use the lemon juice to keep the fruit from browning. The photo is from tasteofhome.com. They have some excellent salsa (and other) recipes there too!

Fruit Salsa

Use any of the following fruits in combination and simply drizzle with a mixture of honey and lemon or lime juice. Always wash, peel and slice or cup fruit into small chunks before tossing with the honey and juice, otherwise the peel can distort the flavor and make it bitter to the taste. Allow to sit (covered) in fridge for approximately one hour or more to blend flavors. Colorful, healthy and delicious! Serve with cinnamon chips or cinnamon toast.
