One of my favorite party appetizers to make is Grilled Fruit Kebabs. They taste delicious and just flat out look amazing when served. Toss some styrofoam in a vase and you can display your kebabs by standing them on end, pushing the end of your skewers into the styrofoam for your guests to easily grab. Or simply lay them out for a colorful display on a serving tray.

What You Will Need

1. Grill
2. Kebab Skewers
3. Fruit
4. Whisk
5. Serving Tray
6. Grill Spray

The sugar glaze that I use really makes the colors of the fruit pop when they are grilled. When you are grilling your kebabs you will want to make sure that you spray the grill with cooking spray because the juices from the fruit will cause them to stick.

The recipe brings out the taste of summer and is the perfect addition to your Labor Day celebrations. Offering your guests fruit is a way to accommodate special dietary needs for those that prefer to not eat dessert.

You can easily change up the fruit selection in this recipe by removing one and adding another. Mangos are another great fruit to grill and serve.
