Here's an enticing, fun, and nourishing snack for kids 10 and older.

You Will Need
1 medium-size carrot, cut into 8 pieces
4 cherry tomatoes
1 stalk celery, cut into bite-size pieces
1/2 small cucumber, peeled and cut into bite-size pieces
8 pieces sweet green pepper
4 wooden skewers, 10 inches long
1/4 cup reduced-fat sour cream
2 tablespoons Thousand Island dressing

What to Do
1. Thread pieces of each vegetable onto each skewer. Use kitchen shears to snip off sharp ends of skewers.

2. In a small bowl, stir sour cream and Thousand Island dressing until mixed. When eating kabobs, slide a vegetable down to the end of the skewer and dunk it in the sour cream mixture.

3. Repeat with remaining vegetables.

NOTE: Instruct children to be careful when eating from skewers. Don't give skewers to young children.

Serves: 4
