GRINCH FRUIT KABOBS
Steps:
- Prep: Wash and dry the strawberries and grapes.
- Slice: peel a banana and evenly slice the banana into roughly 1/4" thick pieces.
- Trim: take the strawberries and even cut off the stem and the tip.
- Tread: using a wooden toothpick, stick the grape onto one end pushing the toothpick roughly halfway through. Then tread on the banana slice and the strawberry. There should be enough of the toothpick for the marshmallow. If not, gently push the fruit further down the toothpick. Next, add the marshmallow to the top of the strawberry. The toothpick should not be sticking out of the top.
- Repeat: Place finished Grinch Kabob on a plate and repeat until you have used up all of your ingredients.
- Eat: serve by themselves or with a fun yogurt or chocolate dip.

- Slide the grapes down onto the skewer slightly more than you need to.
- Slide on the banana slice, followed by the strawberry and top with the marshmallow.
- Slide the grape up slowly (so you don't break the bananas).
- Serve!

Tips:
- To save time, use pre-cut fruits and vegetables.
- For a fun and festive touch, use cookie cutters to shape the fruit and vegetables into holiday shapes.
- If you are using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes before assembling the kabobs to prevent them from burning.
- Be sure to skewer the fruit and vegetables tightly so that they don't fall off when you are eating them.
- If you are making the kabobs ahead of time, store them in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours.
- When you are ready to serve the kabobs, brush them with melted butter or olive oil and grill them over medium heat until they are slightly charred.
