Fruit Kabobs with Honey Almond Yogurt Dip

peaches, sliced into fourths

bananas,

strawberries,

watermelon cubes (8 pieces), diced into 1-2 inch cubes

blueberries,

tbsp Simply Nature Avocado Oil,

Emporium Selection Plain Goat Cheese Log, softened to room temperature (1/2 log)

Friendly Farms Plain Nonfat Greek Yogurt

Specially Selected Raw Honey

tsp Stonemill Pure Vanilla Extract

Southern Grove Roasted Almonds with Sea Salt, chopped

Preheat the grill to medium, or 350F. Gather 5 skewers (if using wooden, soak them in water first to avoid burning).

Assemble by threading fruit onto skewers in the following order: one strawberry, one banana chunk, one watermelon chunk, one peach chunk, and one more strawberry. Transfer to a plate or baking sheet.

Place kabobs on grill and cook for about 3-5 minutes per side, or until grill marks have formed. Remove from grill and transfer to a plate. Garnish with blueberries if desired.

Make dip by combining goat cheese, yogurt, honey, and vanilla in a mixing bowl. Use a hand mixer to beat mixture until smooth and creamy. Stir in most of the crushed almonds just before serving, reserving a handful for garnish. Serve dip with fruit kabobs.

Make these yummy fruit skewers with kids. The recipe guides children through the basics of using a knife to help them build confidence in key kitchen skills

Fruity skewers with yogurt dip

banana

strawberries

grapes

yogurt

maple syrup

cinnamon

chopping board

tea towel or kitchen paper (optional)

knife and optional straw

small bowl

If your chopping board doesn’t have anti-slip grips, lay a dampened tea towel or sheet of kitchen paper on the work surface, then place the board on top to stop it from slipping.

Peel the banana – for little fingers, this is easiest to do from the bottom – then, holding the knife securely and with your hand in the claw position, slice the banana. You should get about 12 rounds.

Remove the stalks from the strawberries. You can do this by cutting them off with the knife or pushing a straw up through the strawberry and into the stalk.

With your hands in the bridge position, slice the strawberries in half: hold each strawberry between your thumb and fingers, then carefully cut in half from the pointy end to the stalk end.

Carefully push the banana slices, strawberry halves, grapes and blueberries onto the skewers in any order you like – you can make a pattern or do this randomly.

For the dip, mix the yogurt and maple syrup together in a small bowl, then sprinkle over the cinnamon and serve with the fruit skewers.

Rainbow Fruit Skewers

21 wooden skewers

goldenberries clementines

pineapple

21 kiwi chunks,

(112 grams) cream cheese, room temperature

(75 grams) powdered sugar

vanilla extract

salt

(120 ml) cold heavy cream

Note: you can get the smallest container of each fruit. The exact amount you’ll need depends on how big your rainbow is. The amounts above are what was needed for 21 skewers. If using a 12&quot; (30.5 cm) platter, you can fit in 19 skewers. If possible, place your hand or stand mixer beaters and bowl in the fridge for 1 hour before making the dip.

In a large mixing bowl using an electric hand mixer, beat the cream cheese, sweetener, vanilla and salt at medium speed until totally combined.

While still mixing, now on low, gradually add the heavy cream.

Once it’s well incorporated, turn the speed to high and beat until stiff peaks form - about 3 to 5 minutes.

Cover and place in the fridge until it&#39;s time to serve. This yields about 1 cup + 3 tablespoons. Can be made up to 2 days in advance.

Make the dip:

Wash, rinse, and pat dry all of the fruit with paper towels.

Cut the fruit as instructed. If serving today, there&#39;s no need to use lemon juice unless you&#39;re using apple or bananas. If serving tomorrow, you might want to toss the fruit in some lemon juice.

If using the fruit I used, it doesn’t matter which side of the skewer you start with (strawberries or purple grapes) because there aren’t any really fragile fruit you have to worry about. If using blackberries, raspberries or other fragile fruit, you&#39;ll want to put those on the skewer last.

Put the fruit on skewers in rainbow order (red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple). I used one piece of fruit for every color, with the exception of blueberries (I used 2 of those).

Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.

Arrange the skewers on a platter in a fan shape to create a rainbow or place them upright in a vase for a stunning centerpiece. But make sure the base is heavy and sturdy enough to support the weight of the fruit kabobs.

If you have leftovers, refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 3 days.

Make the skewers:

These are so pretty and perfect for summer parties! I love this idea and cannot wait to put it together!

What a delicious fruit treat! I'm going to make these with my granddaughter next week.

The colors were vibrant and inviting, and the flavors were great followed by the crunch of the fruits!

I love these cute skewers! We have a St. Paddy's day party every year and these will be perfect for that. Thanks for sharing!

This is such a gorgeous fruit platter and my kids will LOVE this so much. Thanks for the darling idea. It is too cute and I love the dip!
