Ingredients

  • 1 tangerine or Clementine, peeled and cut into 8 segments
  • 8 6-inch wooden skewers

    For dip:

  • 1 cup strawberries, rinsed, stems removed, and cut in half
  • 1/4 cup fat-free plain yogurt
  • 1/8 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 Tbsp honey


Directions

  1. 1 Thread two strawberry halves, two pineapple chunks, two blackberries, and one tangerine segment on each skewer.
  2. To prepare the dip, puree strawberries in a blender or food processor. Add yogurt, vanilla, and honey, and mix well.
  3. Serve two skewers with yogurt dip on the side.

    Note: Skewers have sharp edges, so monitor younger children while eating, or take the fruit off the skewers for them.

    Chefs in Training: Younger children can rinse the fruit, thread onto skewers, and mix the dip. Older children can make the recipe themselves.
