Patriotic Fruit Kabobs Recipe

If you are on the hunt for a last minute quick and easy idea for Memorial Day or July 4th this Patriotic Fruit Kabobs Recipe will save the day. I was on the hunt for a few last minute ideas for this weekends grill outs (we have two this weekend). The hubby and I were brainstorming and decided to whip up something easy. We have so many other errands and household projects needing to be accomplished leaving no time for real cooking. I know these Patriotic Red, White and Blue Fruit Kabobs will be perfect.

Patriotic Fruit Kabobs Recipe

These Red, White and Blue Fruit Kabobs can be made with or without the strawberries cut into stars. I wanted to add the extra Patriotic flair to our Patriotic Fruit Skewers. I used my very tiny star shaped cookie cutter (I found mine at Hobby Lobby). You can also snag this Wilton Stars Nesting Metal Cutter Set on Amazon. If you are talented you could probably cut the star shapes yourself.

Just grab some skewers and your berries. We used blueberries and strawberries but you could also use raspberries if you choose. Oh and do not forget your marshmallows.

INGREDIENTS
1 lb Large Strawberries (need to be big enough for star cookie cutter)
1 pint Blueberries
1 bag Mini Marshmallows
10 Skewers
Butter to grease skewers
1 1/2″ Star Cookie Cutter.

DIRECTIONS
Find 10 largest strawberries, remove stem and cut in half.
Using star cookie cutter make 20 marshmallow stars.
Lightly grease skewer with butter up to the point where you want marshmallows to start.
Push 2 marshmallows down to that point.
Push 2 blue berries down to marshmallows.
Push 2 marshmallows down to the blueberries.
Push 1 star down to the marshmallows.
Push 2 marshmallows down to the star.
Push 2 blue berries down to marshmallows.
Push 2 marshmallows down to the blueberries.
Push 1 star just onto the tip and align other items up to bring together.
Repeat for other 10 skewers.
