If you are planning a meal outdoors when camping, you want foods to be simple, easy to make and use as little utensils as possible.
These rainbow fruit kabobs might be the perfect camping appetizer or healthy dessert! Not only are they easy to make, but they don’t have to be refrigerated and they are the perfect finger foods!
If you are trying to sneak fruits and veggies into your kid’s meals, these colorful fruit skewers are the perfect way to encourage them to eat produce!
This is an easy recipe to make ahead of time and bring to the campsite. Or make in the morning to have during a cookout later in the day.
If making ahead of time, add the marshmallows right before serving so that the white marshmallows don’t become stained with dye from the strawberry, or become hard or soggy from storage.
