Apple Pie Salsa and Cinnamon Tortilla Chips

Salsa is one of my favorite things to make for a get together – it’s just too easy to throw together in a hurry with little muss or fuss. This Apple Pie Salsa with Cinnamon Sugar Chips recipe is just as easy, but brings in the comforting flavors of fall. There’s a lot of chopping that goes into this recipe, so I would make sure you have a set of good sharp knives that can cut through the apples with ease. We used Zwilling’s 8" Chef’s Knife from their Four Star line and it worked perfectly! Once I figured out how to make cinnamon sugar chips, I was hooked! I make these all the time now, and this apple pie salsa is just perfect to dip in to. Don’t forget to top it all off with a dollop of whipped cream for a creaminess that will compliment the cinnamon taste throughout – it’s heavenly!Salsa is one of my favorite things to make for a get together – it’s just too easy to throw together in a hurry with little muss or fuss.
