I came across a recipe, years ago, for fruit salsa. It was so good, I’ve been making a version of it ever since. The first time I made fruit salsa, it was for a girls camping trip. It rained pretty much the whole time, total bust weather wise, but the fruit salsa was a hit! I had forgotten a decent sized mixing bowl, so I mixed it in a leftover storage container. It worked but it wasn’t the easiest. By the time I was done, it was overflowing the sides of the container. We were stuck indoors, with the bad weather, but that didn’t stop us from huddling in the dimly lit camper devouring this salsa, as fast as we could.

Fruit salsa is the perfect dip for summer days. Fresh fruit lightly sweetened, and totally addictive. We eat it at the cabin, while camping, bring it to get togethers, and sometimes just lounging around our own place. It’s the perfect snack full of ripe, tasty berries! It’s also a great way to get extra fruit in, not that, that is a hard thing to do at the peak of summer.

I like this dip best, served with cinnamon pita chips or these Wonton crackers, They are a dream with this salsa. So crispy and crunchy with the perfect sweet seasoning. I also think graham crackers would be a great dipping option, or just use a spoon, and keep it simple!

How to Make Fruit Salsa

Fruit salsa is well worth the little bit of effort it takes. And between you and me, you don’t have to dice this fruit as small, as I do. I like a small dice on my fruit for this. But it’s also a little neurotic on my part. I cut the blueberries and raspberries in at least half. I’m going to blame that on having a baby that’s now eating real food. These days, we’re cutting everything small, it’s habit. And to be honest, I like when all my pieces are roughly the same size for any type of salsa.

But, if you really want to get to the nitty gritty of this, you could just dump in the raspberries and blueberries without cutting them. Dice the strawberries and kiwis and mix it all together. Once everything is cut up, I mix the fruit together with the apricot jam and brown sugar and stir until everything is well mixed.

Fruit salsa is a simple dip. A recipe you can whip together in a hurry and it always impresses. It’s a nice refreshing bite, perfect for any summer feast or party.
