Our friends at OnPoint Nutrition are always coming up with delicious and healthy snacks, and what better way to use up some of your summer fruit than making chocolate dipped fruit kabobs! June and July are prime time for strawberries, so start dipping and enjoy!

Ingredients

  • 16 oz. dark chocolate chips

  • 18 pieces of bite size fruit (strawberries, bananas, apples)

  •  Six 4 inch wooden skewers

Directions

  1. Line baking sheet with wax paper

  2. Microwave chocolate chips in small, uncovered, microwave-safe bowl on HIGH (100%) power for 1 minute; STIR. Chocolates may retain some of their original shape. If necessary, microwave at additional 10 to 15-second intervals, stirring just until chocolates are melted.

  3. Dip fruit about halfway into chocolate; shake off excess. Or, place melted chocolate in small, heavy-duty plastic bag. Cut small corner from bag; squeeze to drizzle over fruit. Place fruit on prepared baking sheet. Refrigerate for 5 to 10 minutes or until chocolate is set.
