Recipe for Vegan Cheese and Fruit Skewers

Ingredients:

  • Vegan cheese (choose a variety that can be easily cubed, like vegan cheddar or mozzarella)
  • Red and green grapes
  • Fresh strawberries, hulled
  • Apple slices (choose a crisp variety like Honeycrisp or Granny Smith)
  • Lemon juice (to prevent apple slices from browning)
  • Wooden skewers

Preparation:

  1. Prep the Fruit and Cheese:
    • Wash the grapes and strawberries thoroughly and pat them dry.
    • Cut the apple into thin slices and soak them briefly in water mixed with a little lemon juice. This prevents the apple slices from turning brown.
    • Cut the vegan cheese into bite-sized cubes.
  2. Assemble the Skewers:
    • Start by threading a grape onto the skewer.
    • Follow with a cube of vegan cheese, then an apple slice, and finally a strawberry.
    • Repeat this pattern until the skewer is filled, leaving enough space at the bottom to hold it comfortably.
    • Aim for a mix of colors and textures on each skewer to make them visually appealing.
  3. Arrange the Skewers:
    • Gently lay the prepared skewers on a modern, white plate. Arrange them artistically to create a visually appealing pattern, perhaps fanning them out or creating rows.
  4. Garnish and Serve:
    • Garnish around the skewers with additional loose grapes and strawberry halves to add to the aesthetic.
    • Serve immediately to ensure the fruit stays fresh and the cheese retains its texture.

Tips:

  • Feel free to experiment with different fruits like blueberries, melon balls, or kiwi slices to add more variety.
  • If you’re serving these at a party, consider making a small dipping sauce, like a vegan chocolate or caramel sauce, to enhance the flavors.

These Vegan Cheese and Fruit Skewers are perfect for a light snack, a party appetizer, or a healthy dessert option. Their fresh, vibrant flavors and stunning presentation make them a delightful treat for any occasion.
