Submitted by southern chef in lo

"These can be used as appetizers, or a main dish. They are simple to make. If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for about 10 minutes to prevent burning."

I always seem to substitute with what I have on hand, but this great recipe formed the basis. I used Recipe #72157 minus the vanilla instead of the apricot syrup. Then I substituted fresh peaches for the apricots. Both adults and kids enjoyed the kabobs. Thanks for sharing.
