Frozen fruit skewers are a great pool-side solution for cooling down in the summer heat. Display them in clear glass vases for fun presentation at your next summer party. Ingredients:
1 cup plain fat-free greek-style yogurt (such as fage) |
3 ounces reduced-fat cream cheese, softened |
3 tablespoons honey (you can adjust the amount of honey to suit your sweet tooth.) |
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon |
1 teaspoon orange zest |
2 peeled ripe mangoes, cut into 1/2-inch-thick cubes (about 24) |
3 peeled kiwifruit, cut into 1/2-inch cubes (about 24) |
1 pint strawberries, halved |
24 seedless red grapes |
12 (8-inch) bamboo or other skewers |
Directions:
1. Combine the first 5 ingredients (through orange zest) in a blender or food processor; process until blended. Refrigerate at least 20 minutes or until mixture sets.
2. Thread fruit alternately onto skewers, using 2 pieces of each fruit per skewer. Place skewers in a single layer on a small rimmed baking sheet. Freeze at least 1 hour or until fruit is frozen through. (Once frozen, skewers can be placed in a resealable zip-top plastic bag and kept in the freezer for up to 2 weeks.)
3. Thaw fruit about 15 minutes before serving. Serve with dip.
