Today’s recipe is an easy holiday fruit appetizer you’ve seen around the internet for years. Fresh strawberries or raspberries, seedless grapes, a banana, and little marshmallows make an adorable fruit treat when arranged with a toothpick. If you make these fruit treats ahead of time, brush a little orange or lemon juice on the sliced banana to prevent browning.
These little skewers are simple to make and a great addition to your appetizers at any Christmas party. Nothing like a little Grinch in Santa’s hat to liven up a party! Serve with other appetizers or on a fruit platter, with a bowl of chocolate dip or whipped cream, or on a cupcake!
