Foodie Friday: Skewers For Every Summer Cookout

My favorite food to grill for company is a kabob. Doesn't everything served on a stick just taste better? A mix of flavorful skewers is a fun and easy way to entertain a crowd and satisfy everyone’s tastes.  The flavor combinations are endless. Your guests will enjoy a twist on the classic barbecue. This recipe roundup features appetizers, salads, main courses, and dessert, all stylishly served on a stick.

HERE: 19 Recipes & Cooks' Tools

Rainbow Veggie Skewers
They say that we should eat the rainbow for our health. These are a treat for our eyes, too. Just look at those purple potatoes!
Gimme Some Oven

Grilled Cilantro Lime Shrimp with Roasted Poblano Sauce
Oh My! The shrimp need to be marinated for as long as you can, but the shrimp only need to be grilled for about 4 minutes. 
Creme De La Crumb

Brazilian Steak Kabobs
These kabobs will transport you to the melting pot of Brazil.  They are full of flavor and tender beef. The added peppers and potatoes add the yummy carbs.
Carlsbad Cravings

Kabob Grilling Basket Set

These make so much sense. "Made from steel wire and topped with a rosewood handle, each basket allows you to prepare separate dishes for vegetarians, or to suit the preference of each guest."

Uncommon Goods

Grilled N' Glazed Strawberries
A fun and easy way to serve dessert at your next cook out. That glaze? It's like your favorite frosting made with cream cheese. Mmmmm!
Creme De La Crumb

Bacon Bourbon BBQ Chicken Kebabs
Not sure which ingredient has me more excited....the bacon or the bourbon! As the recipe author says: "The bacon adds so much flavor and juiciness to the chicken, and when topped off with a little bourbon-infused
 barbecue sauce, there’s nothing better." Yes!
Host The Toast

Grilled Cherry Tomato Lollipop Toasts
Oh how I love a grilled tomato. They are so juicy when charred, and bursting with flavor! This recipe makes a fabulous lunch or appetizer.
White On Rice Couple 

Grilled Swordfish Skewers With Lemon Garlic Sauce
If you love swordfish, try grilling it. It is even better.  The fish just needs to be marinated for about 30 minutes, and the potatoes par boiled prior to grilling. So the entire recipe cooks up very quickly.
Heather Christo

Blackened Salmon Caprese Skewers
Every picture tells a story. This one has a happy ending.... I just know it. The Balsamic Glaze is the finishing touch.
How Sweet Eats

Stainless Steel Sliding Skewers
These make getting the cooked food off the skewer a snap.
Williams Sonoma

Strawberry Shortcake Skewers
The caramelized sugar from the warm strawberries makes its' own sauce. Simply dip in whipped cream. Just perfect!
The Food Network

Grilled Fajita Chicken
Marinating the chicken first is a must for this recipe and all grilled chicken. Add avocado or guac and sour cream, and you have a fajita feast that really sizzles.
Well Plated

Melon Caprese Skewers
These will be a fresh surprise at your next cookout. Easy to transport, if you are bringing a dish, too. 
What's Gabby Cooking

Hawaiian Bacon Pineapple Chicken Kebabs
What's not to like about this recipe? Seems to me that it is the perfect meat on a skewer with the combination of a salty, sweet 
flavor packed punch.
Cafe Delights

Mango Lime Dip & Fruit Kabobs Recipe
How fun, but more importantly, how simple. Both adults and kids will love this recipe.
Tastefully Simple

Grilled Caprese Skewers
Here's your salad or appetizer course. Halloumi cheese is used instead of fresh mozzarella. It has a higher melting point. Cute as they can be!
Foodie Crush

Grilled Salmon, Strawberries & Nectarine Kabobs { Paleo Approved }
With just 6 ingredients, including the skewers, this recipe can be made up in a flash. 
Heather Christo

Soy Glazed Pork and Pineapple Skewers
The soy glaze cuts through the richness of the pork. The sweetness of the pineapple is a perfect pairing for this savory dish.
Gourmet Traveller

Hand-Forged Skewers (Set of 6)
Simple but elegant. These are designed to work for thicker cuts of meat like chicken kebabs, but is delicate enough for things like onions and peppers. A good gift.
