I looked at the calendar today and was surprised, no shocked to see that it's already August 2nd!! How can this be? I could have sworn that summer just started and Ramadan was right around the corner! Now, we're into the last few weeks of summer vacation and it's almost the middle of Ramadan. Darn, time is flying by! Got to make most of the time left!!Ramadan Reminder: try to give a little charity every day this month.
Okay, back to the Ramadan post. Fruit salad/chaat is synonymous with the South Asian iftar table. It shows up in a variety of ways- with masala (which I personally don't like very much), without masala (love!), with tropical fruit, without tropical fruit, with bananas, without bananas...the possibilities are endless!
I decided to shake up the typical iftar fruit bowl and make fruit skewers with fresh Ontario strawberries, sweet pineapple chunks and mouth-watering cantaloupe. The skewers allows the fruit to shine in all of their healthy goodness and brightens up the iftar table. You can serve the skewers with honey flavoured greek yogurt or eat them as is.
