For a sweet treat, try this simple fruit salsa with tortilla chips. It's also great when accompanying grilled chicken, fish, steaks, pork or lamb chops.

Servings: 4 - 6
Prep Time: 15 mins

Cook Time: n/a

Total Time: 15 mins. or up to 6 hrs refridgerate

Ingredients:

1 can	(16 Ounces) Chunky Mixed Fruits or Other Canned Fruits, drained and chopped
½ cup	Coarsely Chopped Red Onion
2 Tbsp	Chopped Fresh Cilantro
1½ Tbsp	Fresh Lime Juice
1 tsp	(fresh or Canned) Seeded & Chopped Jalapeño Pepper, or to taste

Directions:

Combine all ingredients in a bowl.

Let stand at room temperature at least 15 minutes, or refrigerate up to 6 hours before serving.

Tip: Nearly any canned fruit can be used for this recipe. If you use peaches, pears, apricots or pineapples, simply dice the fruit for the salsa. Fruit packed in heavy syrup, lite syrup or juice all work great, but each type will influence the sweetness of your salsa. Also, try combining your favorite varieties of canned fruit.
