Fruity Kabobs

It's one of life's snack mysteries: Putting food on a stick improves the flavor. This sweet kabob alternates fruit and marshmallow; for a more savory version, try cheese chunks and cherry tomatoes.

1 large red apple, cut into 8 wedges
6 marshmallows
1 small jar of creamy peanut butter
1 large banana, cut into 1-inch slices

To make a kabob, carefully push a skewer through the ingredients, starting with a piece of apple, then a marshmallow, then banana, then another marshmallow. Spread a dollop of peanut butter on top of the marshmallow. Now, skewer a piece of banana and another marshmallow (with more peanut butter) and finish with a piece of apple. Repeat with a second skewer. Makes 2 kabobs.
