This has become a summer favorite! It's pretty easy to make, and you can really tweak it to your liking :)
1/2 fresh pineapple
1/2 pound fresh strawberries
1/2 small carton raspberries
1 medium apple (I've used delicious red, and gala. They are both good)
--Chop up all fruit into smaller than bite sized pieces and refrigerate.
Cinnamon Chips:
6-8 Whole Wheat Tortillas
1 cup white sugar
1 TBS ground cinnamon
--Mix together sugar and cinnamon
--Spray tortillas with cooking spray (I've even just spread some olive oil on them) and sprinkle the cinnamon sugar on them. Cut into tortilla chip shapes using a pizza cutter.
--Bake at 350 for 8-10 minutes or until the edges start to brown
Serve with the fruit salsa! Yum!

Best Ever Veggie Stir Fry
My husband and I watched a documentary called "Forks Over Knives" about 3 weeks ago. Since then we've eaten meat, once. It has been such a good change for our family! I recommend to everyone to watch it! Given our new eating habits, I've had to tweak a lot of my favorite recipes, and find new ones. I wanted to find a really good veggie stir fry, I hunted online for days and I just couldn't find one that appealed to me. So I threw this one together myself and it has been our favorite meal EVER! It's so good!
1 red bell pepper
1 green bell pepper
1 yellow bell pepper
1/2 yellow onion
1/2 head of broccoli
1 bunch green onion
1/2 of a fresh pineapple
1 jar Kikkoman sweet and sour sauce
2 TBS ketchup
1 tsp garlic powder (or 2-3 cloves garlic)
1 TBS ground ginger
--Chop up all the peppers. onions, broccoli, and pineapple. Throw it all in a large frying pan or wok, add sweet and sour sauce, ketchup, garlic, and ginger. Cook on medium/high heat for 15-20 minutes depending on how you like the texture of your veggies. We like ours crunchy. Serve over brown rice! YUM!!!
