Red White and Blue Fruit Kabobs

Skewers of Freedom: Red, White and Blue Fruit Kabobs!

Ever just look at a bunch of strawberries and think, “Man, I need to make something festive?” Like, it could be for a BBQ, a last-minute get-together, or just to feel a lil’ extra on a Tuesday, you know? Anyway, I stumbled upon this recipe for Red, White and Blue Fruit Kabobs and let me tell ya, they’re as cute as a puppy in a bowtie!

Okay, Let’s Talk Ingredients
So, picture this: you and I are at the grocery store, and I’m like, “Grab me some strawberries, okay?!” And you’re like, “Why?” And I’m like, “Trust me! We also need blueberries and mini marshmallows.” It’s like a fruity rainbow party on a stick! Oh, and don’t forget those bamboo skewers — they’re essential.

Here’s the quick list:
– 1 pint strawberries (the juicier the better!)
– 1 pint blueberries (fresh, if you can, but frozen works too in a pinch)
– 1 cup mini marshmallows (the fluffier, the better)
– 24 bamboo skewers (just grab a pack, you’ll use them for everything)

So Here’s Why I Make This Constantly
Okay, real talk. These kabobs are my go-to for every summer hangout. Like, last 4th of July, I brought these to a BBQ, and my cousin (who’s usually all about the meat) was like, “Wow, these are actually amazing!” 🍓🥳 So now, I’m basically the cool aunt who brings the fruit skewers, and I’m not mad about it! Plus, they’re super easy to whip up, and kids devour them — which means they’re great for keeping the little gremlins happy while the adults sip on their drinks.

The One Trick That Changes Everything
Okay, so listen up! When you’re threading the fruit onto the skewers, make sure the seed side of the strawberries is facing out. It makes them look way more presentable — like, you could totally serve these at a fancy picnic or something!

Don’t Mess This Up (My Top Tips)
– Seriously, wash and dry the berries first! No one wants soggy kabobs.
– If you cut the strawberries a bit too big or too small, it’ll throw off the whole vibe. Aim for pieces that are about the same size as the marshmallows and blueberries.
– Don’t skewer the marshmallows too tight! They gotta have a little wiggle room – it’s a kabob, not a marshmallow prison.

How to Keep Them From Disappearing (Or, How to Store Them)
Okay, so once you make these beauties, pop them in the fridge. They’re best enjoyed within 24 hours — but honestly, they probably won’t last that long! If you need to store them, just cover them with plastic wrap. Easy peasy.
