Grinch Fruit Kabob Ingredients

You only need 4 basic ingredients and 1 kitchen items to make these healthy grinch fruit kabobs. That makes this one of the most healthy healthy holiday recipes you make all year!

Toothpicks: Use any simple variety of toothpicks. You surely have a thousand in your pantry!

Bananas: You want your bananas closer to the green end of ripeness rather than brown. This way they hold up better on the pick!

Gapes: Be sure you use green grapes. The grinch wasn’t red!

Strawberries: Look for small to medium ones!

Mini Marshmallows: Just pick your favorite!

How to Make Healthy Grinch Fruit Kabobs

Along with being healthy, these grinch fruit kabobs are simple!

Start by cleaning all of your fruit. Slice your banana into small coins and chop the stems off the strawberries.

Insert your toothpick halfway into the grape, slide a banana coin on top, an upside down strawberry, then topped with a mini marshmallow.

See, this is so easy! You can even involve your kids (if they can handle being around toothpicks!) They would love being able to make the food they are about to eat!

Tips For Making the Kabobs

This is a simple assembly of a recipe, but the more information you have the better they are going to turn out!

• Try your best to make these kabobs as soon as to the time they will be served. Because there is fruit involved, especially banana, they will begin to brown. They would still be safe to consume, but who wants a brown grinch fruit kabob!?
• Depending on the size of your fruit, it may be difficult to fit on a toothpick. For this reason, just place a portion of the stick through the grape.
  • If there is still too much to fit on the pick, slice a portion off of the wide end of the strawberry!
• If you want a purely fruit kabob, replace the mini marshmallow with a small piece of banana!
• You could use food gel to make a face for the grinch on the grapes, but in my opinion it isn’t worth it. It won’t turn out as well as you hope and will ultimately smudge.

Overnight Oat Ingredients

Old Fashioned Oats: Be sure to use old fashioned oats and not quick oats. This kind are able to not become a soggy mess overnight!

Fresh Blueberries: This is a great way to add to your daily fruit and veggie intake and add in some extra flavor.

Lemon Juice: You can either use the juice from 1/2 a lemon or 1.5 tablespoons of lemon juice. Both taste delicious. Pick whichever you perfer.

Milk: By using skim milk you are adding in some extra protein without added fat.

Lemon Protein Powder: I use Lemon flavored protein powder to pack in all the lemon flavor I can get. Use LAURENK10 on Ascent’s website to save some money! If you are okay with less lemon flavor, a vanilla protein powder will also work well!

How to Prepare Blueberry Lemon Overnight Oats

Making this Blueberry Lemon Overnight Oat recipe is a breeze! You can make a single serving or a large batch to have a weeks worth of breakfasts covered.

You simply have to add all of the ingredients into an airtight container and mix thoroughly! It truly is as simple as that.

Blueberry Nutrition

Blueberries are one of the most popular fruits in America. They are known for being packed with antioxidants. This means they help stop oxidation (this is usually good!)

Blueberries are naturally sweet. This means you don’t need to add in extra sweeteners when utilizing them! That makes for a sweet dish without the not-so-sweet nutrition content!

Blueberries are also a source of dietary fiber. Add an extra handful on your morning oats if you are looking to pump up your daily fiber intake! If you want to learn more about fiber read my article: Fiber, An Important Carbohydrate.

Peanut Butter Chocolate Protein Ball Ingredients

Making Peanut Butter Chocolate Protein Balls is so EASY! The ingredients are simple and typical household staples. That means you don’t need to take a special trip to the grocery store.

To start, you need oats. Any kind works but quick or 1-minute would be best. You also need your favorite chocolate chips! I use the classic Nestle Toll House but you could also use a sugar-free variety or even white chocolate chips.

Next, crunchy peanut butter. You don’t need to use crunchy but it adds some nice texture to the balls. You will also need protein powder. I used the brand Ascent because they have a peanut butter chocolate flavor. You can snag it from Amazon or sub it with any other protein powder you have on hand.

Lastly, you just need a punch of honey, salt, and vanilla extract. These ingredients help amp up the flavor, but can be easily altered.

Once you’ve rounded up all of the ingredients you’ll be using you’ve already done the most difficult part of making peanut butter protein balls!

Your next step is to measure out the correct amounts and add them to a bowl. Then mix them all up. Next, grab your cookie scoop and grab equal amounts of the mixture and firmly roll it together with clean hands.

Lastly, place them on a cookie sheet and pop them in the freezer for about an hour. This step helps the balls to stick together. If you want to eat them immediately-go for it!

Peanut Butter Chocolate Protein Ball Nutrition

Because this snack is considered ‘healthy’, I figured out the nutrition facts for you. This recipe makes 13 balls, so this is for a batch of 13. If you end up making more or less these nutrition facts will be slightly skewed.

Each protein ball contains 122kcal, 7g fat, 11g carb, and 5g protein. These are a perfectly balanced little snack or pre-workout snack. 1 or 2 is just enough calories to keep you going between meals without going overboard. 5g of protein each makes it easy to up your daily protein intake!
