These are always a hit with children. We call them traffic lights with the fruit listed. You can use any fruits of your choice. Serve on their own or with a yogurt as a dipping sauce. Even children that aren't keen fruit eaters usually enjoy these. Ingredients:
4 kiwi fruits, peeled and cut in half across the width |
1/2 fresh pineapple, peeled and chopped (8 x 3cm wedges) |
8 large strawberries |
8 ice-cream sticks |
Directions:
1. Peel and chop fruit. 2. Thread onto the ice-cream sticks. First the strawberries, then pineapple and lastly the kiwifruits. 3. Use a small paring knife to cut a hole into the centre of the fruits if they do not thread easily onto the ice-cream sticks. 4. Refrigerate until needed. 5. Suggestion-Serve with a yogurt as a dipping sauce. 6. Variation- can use any fruits of your choice. They just need to be approx 3 times wider than the ice-cream stick. 7. For older children you can use small wooden skewers. |
