Fruit Kabobs

Fruit kabobs are a nice addition to your movie marathon fare! Your guests will enjoy customizing their own. This recipe could not be easier. A recipe for dip follows, for those who might want to serve it along with the kabobs.

This is what you will need for the kabobs. Assorted fruit pieces of your choice, such as watermelon, strawberries, grapes, pineapple, cantaloupe, honeydew melons and enough small bamboo skewers for the number of guests you have invited.

Step One: Complete pre-party prep. Cut fruit into bite-size pieces. Cover lightly with plastic wrap or foil and refrigerate until party time. If you have a lot of guests, or want to streamline your food service, make kabobs ahead of time. Chill until party time.

Step Two: Pass the fruit platter so your guests can make their own kabob. Your guests will select 4 or 5 pieces of fruit and slide each piece onto a bamboo skewer.

Dip:

8 ounces cream cheese, softened
1 pack of Dream Whip Topping, prepare according to package directions
2 teaspoons of sugar free drink mix - strawberry will tint dip pink, lemon will tint yellow

Mix Dream Whip Topping and chill until needed. Beat softened cream cheese and drink mix until light and fluffy. Fold in prepared Dream Whip. Refrigerate until ready to eat.
