Ingredients
  

For the Fruit Skewers:

1 cup strawberries, hulled and halved

1 cup pineapple, cubed

1 cup kiwi, peeled and sliced

1 cup banana, sliced into thick rounds

1 cup green grapes, rinsed

1 cup blueberries, rinsed

1 cup red or purple grapes, rinsed

Bamboo skewers or metal skewers for assembly

For the Yogurt Dip:

1 cup Greek yogurt (plain or flavored based on preference)

2 tablespoons honey (or substitute with maple syrup for a vegan dip)

1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional for added warmth)

Fresh mint leaves for garnish (optional for extra color and flavor)

Instructions
 

Prep the Fruit:

    - Thoroughly wash all the fruits under cold water. Hull the strawberries and slice them in half. Cut the pineapple into bite-sized cubes, peel the kiwi and slice it into rounds. Slice the bananas into thick rounds to prevent them from becoming mushy. Ensure that all grapes are rinsed and ready for use.

      Assemble the Skewers:

        - Take a bamboo or metal skewer and start threading the fruits onto it, creating a colorful pattern. For an eye-catching design, you might follow this order: a strawberry half, a banana slice, a kiwi round, a pineapple cube, a green grape, a red grape, and top it off with a blueberry. Feel free to alternate fruit types to achieve a striking visual appeal!

          Make the Yogurt Dip:

            - In a medium-sized mixing bowl, add the Greek yogurt. Pour in the honey, vanilla extract, and sprinkle in the ground cinnamon if using. Use a whisk or spoon to blend until the ingredients are creamy and well-combined.

              Serve:

                - Carefully arrange your colorful fruit skewers on a vibrant serving platter. You can serve the yogurt dip either in a small bowl for dipping or drizzle it directly over the skewers for a lovely presentation. If desired, garnish the dish with fresh mint leaves for a pop of color and an aromatic touch.

                  Enjoy:

                    - Serve your Rainbow Fruit Skewers immediately as a refreshing snack, a delightful dessert, or a vibrant party appetizer that is sure to impress!
