Serves: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 1 cup strawberries, hulled
- 1 cup pineapple, cubed
- 1 cup green grapes
- 1 cup blueberries
- Wooden skewers
Instructions
- Begin by gathering all your ingredients: 1 cup of hulled strawberries, 1 cup of cubed pineapple, 1 cup of green grapes, and 1 cup of blueberries. Ensure you have wooden skewers ready for assembly.
- Rinse all the fruits thoroughly under cold water. This will help remove any dirt or pesticides. Pat them dry gently with a clean kitchen towel or paper towels.
- Prepare the strawberries by hulling them. Use a small paring knife or a strawberry huller to remove the green leafy tops and the white core. Cut the strawberries in half if they are large, so they are easier to skewer.
- Next, take the pineapple and cut it into bite-sized cubes if you haven't done so already. Ensure the pieces are roughly the same size as the other fruits for even skewering.
- Now, it's time to assemble the skewers. Take a wooden skewer and start by adding a strawberry half, followed by a cube of pineapple, a green grape, and a blueberry. Repeat this process until the skewer is filled, leaving a little space at the end for easy handling.
- Continue to create additional skewers until all the fruit is used up. You can alternate the order of the fruits on each skewer for a colorful presentation.
- Once all the skewers are assembled, arrange them on a serving platter. You can serve them immediately or refrigerate them for a short time if you prefer them chilled.
- Enjoy your Naturally Thin Rainbow Fruit Skewers as a refreshing snack, a healthy dessert, or a colorful addition to any gathering!
Tips
