Recipe of the Week: Great Grilled Fruit Kabobs

Remember last week when we were... oh, heck, forget about the past. The most important thing right now is that the unofficial end of summer is at our doorstep. (Sigh) So let us grill, grill, grill, like there is no tomorrow!

This goes especially for you, East Coast-ers, because tomorrow (and the whole weekend) could be a wash thanks to Earl.
So let's find some fruit and fire it up!



Grilled Fruit Kabobs

You need:
  • 1/2 cup margarine
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 3 fresh peaches, pitted and quartered
  • 3 fresh plums, pitted and quartered
  • 3 bananas cut into 4 pieces each
  • 12 strawberries, hulled
  • 12 skewers
Directions:
  1. Preheat outdoor grill for medium heat and place a large sheet of foil on the grate
  2. Melt margarine and honey together in a small saucepan over medium heat
  3. Reduce heat to low and cook gently, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened - about 5 minutes (do not allow to boil.)
  4. Put a peach quarter, plum quarter, banana piece and strawberry on to each skewer
  5. Place skewers on the foil on the preheated grill and spoon honey mixture over each skewer
  6. Grill until the fruit is softened and the sauce has thickened and cooked onto the fruit - about 5 minutes
  7. Flip the skewers, spoon more honey mixture onto each skewer and grill about 5 more minutes
