Fruity Fun


Fruit Kabobs

You will need:

oranges
watermelon
bananas
cantaloupe
pineapple
kiwi
apples
grapes
strawberries
peaches
lime juice
wood skewers
ice cube tray

Recipe:

1. Fruit...
Get an adult to cut the fruit into cubes. Squeeze fresh lime
juice over the cut banana and apple so they don’t get brown.
It also makes them taste great.

2. Kabobs
Simply slide the different fruits in any combination onto the
skewer until the kebab is full. You can use a banana at either end to hold everything in place. Make as many kebabs as you think you can eat!

3.Fruit Cubes
Now it’s time to make fruit cubes. Fill one ice tray with
apple juice and one with water. Not too full! Now for the fun
part: put a piece of fruit in each square, like a grape or
cantaloupe. Put the trays in the freezer until the cubes
freeze. Then put them in your drinks. It’s simple and
yummy!

Breakfast On The Go

For a fast and healthy breakfast, parfait's are a great way to start the morning. Kids can easily put it together and can take it along for the ride to school.

You will need:
plastic cup(s)
spoon(s)

1 cup of your favorite yogurt
1 cup fresh or frozen fruit (like blueberries, strawberries, raspberries, bananas, raisins, apples)
1 packet plain oatmeal or 1/4 cup rolled oats (cornflakes are good too)

Make sure the fruit is washed and cut into bite size pieces. In a cup, spoon in 1/4 of the yogurt. On top of that, add 1/4 of the fruit then sprinkle on some oats. Continue the layers until all have been used. Enjoy!
