2/5 stars. The skewers were okay, but not great. I probably wouldn't make them again.

I would not recommend this recipe. The skewers were bland and the vegetables were undercooked.

Overall, I thought these skewers were just okay. They were easy to make, but they didn't have a lot of flavor.

The skewers were a bit too salty for my taste. I think I would use less salt in the marinade next time.

The skewers were a bit dry. I think I would cook them for a shorter amount of time next time.

These skewers were a bit bland for my taste. I think I would add some more spices or herbs to the marinade next time.

These skewers were a bit more work than I expected, but they were definitely worth it! The shrimp were cooked perfectly and the vegetables were so flavorful. The marinade added a nice tangy flavor that really brought the dish together.
