I am so excited to share this fun, healthy and easy recipe with you – 4th of July Fruit Kabobs! My kids LOVE fruit, so they are excited any time we have fruit as a side during a barbecue. If you are looking for a great side dish that will help you celebrate the 4th of July, you need to make these 4th of July Fruit Kabobs.

I used blueberries, strawberries and bananas, but you can easily use raspberries for the red fruit and marshmallows for the white. You will want a package of wooden skewers. You can find them at your local grocery store and even on Amazon.
How to make 4th of July Fruit Kabobs
For the first few kabobs, I add blueberries to the top of the skewer to look like the blue part of our American flag. I alternated the white and red fruits to simulate the stripes on the flag. I was not at all worried about accuracy here, I was just going for the “jist” of looking like the flag.
Grab some fresh fruit and make these 4th of July Fruit Kabobs at this year’s Independence Day celebration! They kids thought they were super cute and tasty too!

Love healthy food for everyone! How do you keep the bananas from browning. I was going to take them to a party and was going to prepare them ahead of time and transport them in a cooler.already made. There is no way I can make it there. Help ??

When I’m bringing this to a party I put lemon juice on the bananas as it helps them not to brown as quickly. Thank you!
