AIP Friendly Honey Lime Fruit Skewers
Bright, juicy, and almost too pretty to eat, these fruit skewers are the kind of dish that disappears fast at any gathering. Strawberries, pineapple, mango, grapes, and blueberries are threaded onto skewers in alternating colors, making the platter look like something out of a magazine with almost zero effort. The real magic is the honey lime glaze — just honey, fresh lime juice, lime zest, and a touch of ground ginger whisked together until silky smooth — which ties all those different fruits into one cohesive, craveable bite. Following the autoimmune protocol means navigating a lot of "no" lists, and desserts or snacks can feel especially limiting, but this recipe leans entirely on whole fruits and clean, compliant ingredients with nothing to second-guess. The glaze drizzles over the skewers right before serving, so every piece gets that sweet-tart citrus coating without any cooking required. A scatter of torn fresh mint on top adds a cool, herby finish that makes the whole platter feel a little more special. With four servings ready in minutes, this is the kind of recipe you'll reach for whenever you need something festive that still plays by the rules.
