Add a kick to fruit with this easy Mexican style fruit plate! We used a homemade chili-lime salt and sprinkled it on long slices of fresh fruit.

It seems odd to put chili powder on fruit, but after trying it at a Mexican market, I was hooked on the unique flavor combination!

The chili gives the fruit a spicy kick that kept me coming back for more! They actually sell a chili-lime seasoning at the Mexican market, but I figured making my own would be easy too.
