Claudia Ruis knows a way to slip more fruit into your family's diet. Both kids and adults love these fun grilled fruit kabobs. I like the fact that the sauce and be made ahead of time, she writes from Massapequa, New York. Kids will have a great time helping to assemble the kabobs, too. Ingredients:
1-1/2 cups fresh or frozen raspberries, thawed |
1/3 cup orange juice |
1 tablespoon confectioners' sugar |
2 medium firm bananas, cut into 3/4-inch slices |
2 cups cubed fresh pineapple |
2 large fresh plums, cut into 3/4-inch pieces |
24 large marshmallows |
1 tablespoon lemon juice |
1 tablespoon honey |
Directions:
1. Mash and strain raspberries, reserving juice. Discard seeds. In a small bowl, combine the orange juice, sugar and raspberry juice; set aside. 2. On 12 metal or soaked wooden skewers, alternately thread fruit and marshmallows. Combine lemon juice and honey; brush over fruit. 3. Using long-handled tongs, moisten a paper towel with cooking oil and lightly coat the grill rack. Prepare grill for indirect heat. Place kabobs over drip pan and grill over indirect medium heat for 2-4 minutes or until marshmallows are golden, turning frequently. Serve with raspberry sauce. Yield: 6 servings. |
