Ingredients
Scale
- Strawberries, hulled and halved
- Seedless grapes (red or green)
- Pineapple chunks (fresh or canned in juice)
- Kiwi slices (peeled)
- Melon balls (cantaloupe or honeydew)
- Blueberries (optional)
- 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice (optional)
- Wooden or bamboo skewers (6-inch)
Instructions
- Wash and prep the fruit: rinse all fruits thoroughly under cold water. Hull and halve strawberries, peel and slice kiwi, cut pineapple into bite-sized chunks, and scoop melon into balls if using. Dry the fruit gently with paper towels.
- Mix the honey yogurt dip: in a mixing bowl, combine 1 cup plain Greek yogurt with 2 tablespoons honey and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract. Whisk until smooth and creamy. Add 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice if desired. Taste and adjust sweetness if needed.
- Assemble the kabobs: thread the fruit onto wooden skewers, alternating colors and textures for visual appeal. Aim for about 5-6 fruit pieces per skewer.
- Chill or serve immediately: refrigerate the kabobs for up to 1 hour before serving to keep fresh and cool. Cover and chill the yogurt dip until ready to serve.
- Serve: arrange kabobs on a platter alongside a small bowl of honey yogurt dip. Encourage dipping each bite for maximum flavor.
Notes
Soak wooden skewers in water for 20 minutes if grilling to prevent burning. Pat fruit dry before assembling to avoid soggy kabobs. Serve within a couple of hours for best texture. For vegan version, use plant-based yogurt and replace honey with maple syrup or agave nectar.
