FRUIT SKEWERS FOR CHILDREN (AND ADULTS TOO!) - CHILD SAFE

Steps:

• Peel and chop fruit.
• Thread onto the ice-cream sticks. First the strawberries, then pineapple and lastly the kiwifruits.
• Use a small paring knife to cut a hole into the centre of the fruits if they do not thread easily onto the ice-cream sticks.
• Refrigerate until needed.
• Suggestion-Serve with a yogurt as a dipping sauce.
• Variation- can use any fruits of your choice. They just need to be approx 3 times wider than the ice-cream stick.
• For older children you can use small wooden skewers.

RAINBOW FRUIT SKEWERS

Steps:

• Choose one fruit for each color of the rainbow (red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple). Peel citrus fruits with a knife and cut into 1- inch cubes. Leave berries whole. String 1 fruit from each color onto the skewer in rainbow order. Repeat this until you have 8 fruit skewers.
• Note: This recipe is very adaptable. The above are only suggestions. I encourage people to get creative with other fruits, especially substituting ones that are fresh and in season, keeping to a rainbow pattern!
