Cinnamon Chips with Fruit Salsa

Cinnamon Chips with Fruit Salsa
Almost every kid loves salsa and chips and this sweeter take on them is the perfect snack. Change fruits to suit your own tastes, but use the same amounts listed for the best results. Using a cooking spray pump (I love Misto) in lieu of butter cuts down on calories as well.

The chips really only need one side sprayed and dusted with cinnamon sugar, otherwise it just gets messy and they stand a greater chance of burning.

Make up a batch of these in just a few minutes and watch them disappear just as quickly!
