In the aftermath of my pizza fiasco, Yankee Noodle Candy was kind enough to make me a favorite dessert...
Fruit Fiesta is always an eye-popping array of color. The beautiful green and red fruits with their juices surrounded by the cinnamon sugar tortilla chips reminds one of a desert cactus flower in April. This dish was discovered a few years back and is a rare treat in the Yankee Noodle household.
This dish begs the question: at what point does food become art? Is there a point at which the value of a dish is greater as something to behold with the eyes - something we preserve for future generations to gawk at and discuss - than as something we slowly and lovingly consume and eventually use as energy for our bodies?
VERY DETAILED DIRECTIONS: Chop up a kiwi, an apple, and some strawberries. Add sugar and strawberry jam. Put it in the fridge for a while. Allow the sugar to draw out the natural sugar from the fruit and accumulate at the bottom of the bowl as the most luscious juice imaginable. Stir. Cut up and bake some tortillas and add cinnamon and sugar. Eat this like chips and salsa. Enjoy it. ENJOY IT.
I know what you're thinking: how could anyone eat something so picturesque?
That's why we have cameras. To preserve the beauty. Oh, the beauty!
