I love chips and salsa. It is one of my favorite snack foods.
Traditional tomato based salsas are excellent, but sometimes it is fun to mix things up a bit.
As far as foods go, cranberries, with their bright, bold color, scream Christmas to me.
So, I thought it would be fun to take this gorgeous, bright and tart fruit and created a Christmas-y salsa recipe.

I love to pair this Roasted Cranberry Salsa with Blue Corn Tortilla Chips from Food Should Taste Good.
I have been buying these chips to serve with salsa for years and love them.
I think they’re great for mixed company get togethers that involve food because they’re Certified Gluten-Free, Vegan, and Kosher – usually that covers most people.
Plus, the chip is nice and sturdy and a good size for scooping up bites of this delicious dip.

I love the flavor of the nutty flaxseed, quinoa and organic blue corn in this versatile chip.
