Ingredients
  

1 cup fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced in half

1 cup fresh pineapple, cut into bite-sized chunks

1 cup kiwi, peeled and sliced into rounds

1 cup watermelon, cut into 1-inch cubes

1 cup grapes (green or red, your choice)

1 cup blueberries

1 cup vanilla Greek yogurt

1 tablespoon honey

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Optional: fresh mint leaves, for garnish

Instructions
 

Prepare the Fruit: Start by washing all the fruits thoroughly. Hull the strawberries and slice them in half. Cut the pineapple into bite-sized chunks, the kiwi into rounds, and the watermelon into 1-inch cubes. Rinse the grapes and blueberries gently. It's important to keep the pieces similar in size to ensure even skewering.

    Make the Yogurt Dip: In a medium mixing bowl, combine the vanilla Greek yogurt with the honey and vanilla extract. Stir until the mixture is smooth and the ingredients are well incorporated. Taste the dip and adjust the sweetness by adding more honey, if desired.

      Assemble the Skewers: Take your wooden or metal skewers and begin threading the fruit onto them. You can create colorful patterns by alternating different fruits to make each skewer visually appealing. Aim to thread about 4 to 5 pieces of fruit on each skewer.

        Chill the Skewers: Once all the skewers are assembled, place them in the refrigerator for about 15 to 20 minutes. Chilling will help keep the fruits fresh, firm, and refreshing when served.

          Serve the Fruit Skewers: After chilling, arrange the fruit skewers on a beautiful serving platter. Serve the yogurt dip in a small bowl alongside the skewers. For an extra touch, garnish the platter with fresh mint leaves for a hint of color and aromatic freshness.

            Enjoy: To enjoy these delightful skewers, simply dip the fresh fruit into the creamy yogurt dip and savor the refreshing and delicious combination of flavors!
