Your vegetarian and health-conscious friends will fall in love with these healthy meals! Serve fruit kebabs with flavored yogurts or honey as dipping sauces.

Ingredients:

-Fruits (such as grapes, watermelon, apples, oranges, cantaloupes, mangos, blueberries, strawberries, raspberries, kiwi, pineapple, cherry tomato for a wild card!), cut into bite-size pieces (peeled if needed)

-Wooden kebab sticks (one per person)

-Special treat (such as mini marshmallow or brownie bite) optional

Directions:

1. Slice fruit into bite-sized chunks (do not cut grapes or whole berries). Thread fruit chunks onto wooden skewers. As you make each skewer, lay it down on a large tray. If you are using a special treat, put that on first or use it as an ending piece.

2. Once you cover the tray with a single layer of skewers, place a piece of waxed paper on top and begin your next layer of skewers if needed. This will keep them tidier than if you pile skewers on top of each other and the fruit starts getting entwined.
