Persimmon Pomegranate Salsa

Makes 2 cups

2 small carrots, or 1 cup grated carrot

1 jalapeño, finely diced

1/2 cup cilantro, chopped

1 fuyu persimmon, finely diced

3 tablespoons pomegranate seeds

1 tablespoon lime juice

Pinch of cinnamon

Instructions for adults

Dice the jalapeno and persimmon. Slice open the pomegranate. Cut a lime in half. Assist your child with prepping the other ingredients.

Instructions for kids

Use a box grater to grate the carrots. Tear the cilantro with your hands into small pieces. Use your hands to wiggle the pomegranate seeds (like a loose tooth) to remove from the inside of the fruit. Squeeze the lime, and measure 1 tablespoon of juice.

Place all ingredients in a small bowl and stir to combine. Serve with tortilla chips.
