# Directions:
01 - Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

# Expert Hints:
01 -
- Crispy chips dipped into vibrant, juicy fruit feels like a party trick you won't get tired of sharing.
- The whole thing comes together quickly, which is my secret weapon when friends text last minute.
02 -
- If you overload the chips on the tray, they won't crisp properly and you'll get soggy patches.
- Letting the salsa chill for at least fifteen minutes helps the flavors blend, turning a good snack into a great one.
03 -
- Stacking the tortillas before cutting saves time when making batches for a group.
- Cut everything small and uniform so you get a little of every fruit in each bite.
