Instructions

Wash and dry all fruit. Hull strawberries and slice banana into rounds.
If using cream cheese, spread a small dab on one side of each banana slice.
Thread one green grape onto a pretzel stick or toothpick.
Add a banana slice beneath the grape, cream cheese side facing up if used.
Top with a whole strawberry, pointed tip up.
Arrange assembled skewers on a platter and serve immediately.

Notes

These skewers are best enjoyed fresh. Prepare fruit components separately to prevent browning, and consider using lemon juice on banana slices to delay oxidation.
