Description

Fruit Kabobs with honey yogurt dip are a deliciously simple and impressive summer treat. The perfect healthy party snack to please a crowd! Use firm versus overly ripe fruit for best results.


Ingredients

Units Scale

For the fruit:

  • 2 peaches, sliced into fourths
  • 2 medium just ripe bananas, diced into 1-2 inch chunks
  • 10 strawberries, ends removed
  • 1 1/2 cups watermelon cubes (8 pieces), diced into 1-2 inch cubes
  • 1/2 cup blueberries, for garnish (optional)
  • 1 tbsp avocado oil (or neutral oil), for brushing

For the honey yogurt dip:

  • 2oz goat cheese, softened to room temperature (1/2 log)
  • 3/4 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 3-4 tbsp honey (I like raw honey)
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup roasted salted almonds, choppedd

Instructions

  1. Preheat the grill to medium, or 350F. Gather 5 skewers (if using wooden, soak them in water first to avoid burning).
  2. Assemble by threading fruit onto skewers in the following order: one strawberry, one banana chunk, one watermelon chunk, one peach chunk, and one more strawberry. Transfer to a plate or baking sheet.
  3. Place kabobs on grill and cook for about 3-5 minutes per side, or until grill marks have formed. Remove from grill and transfer to a plate. Garnish with blueberries if desired.
  4. Make dip by combining goat cheese, yogurt, honey, and vanilla in a mixing bowl. Use a hand mixer to beat mixture until smooth and creamy. Stir in most of the crushed almonds just before serving, reserving a handful for garnish. Serve dip with fruit kabobs.
