A refreshing and easy-to-make snack featuring colorful frozen fruit kabobs paired with a creamy, slightly sweet yogurt dip. Perfect for hot days, parties, or healthy snacking.

Ingredients

  • Strawberries, hulled and halved (fresh or frozen)
  • Seedless grapes (red or green)
  • Melon balls (cantaloupe or honeydew)
  • Pineapple chunks (fresh or canned in juice, drained)
  • Blueberries (optional)
  • Plain Greek yogurt (about 1 cup)
  • Honey or maple syrup (1-2 tablespoons, adjust to taste)
  • Vanilla extract (1 teaspoon)
  • Fresh lemon zest (optional)

Instructions

  1. Wash all fresh fruit thoroughly. Hull and halve the strawberries, peel and ball the melon, and drain pineapple chunks if using canned. Pat grapes dry to avoid excess moisture.
  2. Thread fruit onto wooden or bamboo skewers in a colorful pattern, alternating strawberry, grape, melon ball, pineapple chunk, and blueberry. Leave a bit of stick at the end for easy handling.
  3. Lay the assembled kabobs flat on a freezer-safe tray or plate. Freeze uncovered for at least 2 hours until fruit is solid but not rock-hard.
  4. In a mixing bowl, combine Greek yogurt, honey, vanilla extract, and lemon zest (if using). Stir well until smooth and creamy. Keep the dip chilled until ready to serve.
  5. Arrange frozen fruit kabobs on a platter and serve with the creamy yogurt dip on the side.

Notes

Let kabobs sit at room temperature for 2-3 minutes before serving if too icy. Pat fruit dry before assembling to prevent kabobs from sticking together. For dairy-free dip, substitute Greek yogurt with coconut or almond yogurt. Kabobs can be grilled briefly for a warm variation.
