Ingredients
  

For about 12 kebabs, you'll need:
  • 1 Small watermelon, cubed
  • 1 Pineapple, peeled, cored, and cubed
  • 2 Cups Strawberries. hulled
  • 2 Cups Grapes (green or purple, or a mix)
  • 2 Bananas, sliced into thick rounds
  • 1 Cup Blueberries
  • Wooden skewers

Equipment

  • Cutting Board - To safely chop and slice your fruits.
  • Sharp Knife - For cutting through the various fruits. A chef's knife would work best for most, but a serrated knife might be handy for the watermelon.
  • Melon Baller (optional) - If you want to make watermelon balls for a different shape, though this isn't necessary.
  • Skewers - Wooden or bamboo skewers are traditional, but you could also use metal skewers if you prefer reusable options. Make sure they're long enough to hold several pieces of fruit.
  • Bowls or Containers - For holding prepped fruits before skewering.
  • Lemon Squeezer or Juicer (optional) - If you decide to use lemon juice to prevent browning of fruits like bananas or apples.
  • Pastry Brush or Small Bowl with Spoon - For applying lemon juice or any glaze (like honey or a flavored syrup) to the fruits.
  • Platter or Plate - For serving the finished kebabs.
  • Plastic Wrap or Airtight Containers - If you're preparing them in advance and need to store them in the fridge.

Method
 

  1. Prepare Your Fruits:
    Wash all fruits thoroughly. Cut the watermelon, pineapple, and bananas into bite-sized pieces. Keep strawberries whole if they're small, or halve them if larger.
  2. Assemble the Kebabs: Take a skewer and start threading the fruits onto it. Here's a fun pattern you might try:
    Start with a grape,
    Follow with a piece of watermelon,
    Then a pineapple chunk,
    Add a strawberry,
    Slide on a banana slice,
    Finish with a blueberry.
    Repeat this pattern or mix it up to your liking!
  3. Presentation:
    Arrange your kebabs on a platter. You can drizzle them with a bit of honey or sprinkle some mint leaves for an extra touch of flavor and garnish.
  4. Serve:
    These are best served fresh but can be refrigerated for a couple of hours. If you're taking them to an event, consider transporting them in a cooler.
