Fruit Kebabs

Madisen is our little chef. She loves to help out in the kitchen. She was very excited to receive Paula Deen's my first cookbook for Christmas from my parents. My hope is to let her pick something each week to make from her cookbook.

This last week we made Fruit Kebabs. Both Madisen and Miriam had fun putting them together. They are really very simple to make. The recipe has you take skewers and put red grapes, green grapes, strawberries, and pineapple on each skewer. We ended up substituting the green grapes for blueberries because that is what we had on hand and they turned out very well! My girls are good fruit eaters, but Miriam does not always care for pineapple and blueberries, but she ate them all up.

We have really enjoyed this cookbook so far! The illustrations are so very cute. All the ingredients are laid out in picture format, which makes it easy for Madisen to see what we need to make each recipe. We are looking forward to making Frozen Bananas (chocolate covered) next.
