Estimated from USDA data for 1 of 8 servings. Doesn't include salt to taste or anything listed “to serve”.

Method

  1. Rinse and dry the grapes and strawberries. Slice the green tops off the strawberries straight across so they sit flat.

  2. Peel the bananas and cut into 1/2-inch rounds, about 12 per banana. Toss gently with the lemon juice if using.

  3. Thread a grape onto each skewer first, pushing it near the bottom, then a banana slice.

  4. Add a strawberry, wide cut side down against the banana, so it forms a pointed red hat.

  5. Finish each skewer with a mini marshmallow on the tip of the hat as a pom-pom, and stand or lay them on a platter to serve.

Tips

  • Pick strawberries that are about the width of the banana slices so the hats line up neatly.
  • Assemble within an hour of serving; the banana softens and browns if they sit too long.
  • Most mini marshmallows contain gelatin, so these aren't vegetarian; look for a gelatin-free brand if you need them to be.
