FOR A FRUIT KABOB
FOR A VEGETABLE KABOB
For a fruit kabob:
1. Cut the apple into 1-inch wedges. Leave the skin on to make your kabob colorful.
2. Drain a can of pineapple chunks in a colander over the sink.
3. Wash the grapes and remove them from the stem.
4. Peel the banana and slice it into ¼-inch thick rounds.
5. Now take the skewer stick and first put on an apple wedge, then add a pineapple chunk. Next put on a red grape, then a banana, and then a green grape.
Keep doing this until your kabob stick is covered end-to-end with fruit.
Serve these kabobs on the sticks and watch how everyone enjoys them.
For a vegetable kabob:
1. Wash all the vegetables and pat them dry with paper towels.
2. Cut the celery into ½-inch pieces.
3. Cut the carrots into ¼-inch rounds.
4. Clean the green pepper, being sure to get out all the seeds. Cut the pepper into pieces about ¾-inch square.
5. Take the kabob stick and place a celery piece on the end.
6. Add a piece of carrot, a tomato, a green pepper square, another celery, another carrot, another tomato, and so on until the kabob stick is full.
This is a good snack to use with the Dippity Dilly Vegetable Dip.
