Grilled Salmon, Strawberry and Nectarine Kebabs from HeatherChristo.com

OMG. I am finally back in my house today. I have been out of my own kitchen for 5 weeks (insert crying face emoji) and I am just so ready to be back. I am incredibly inspired after all of my travels and truly can not wait to get into the kitchen and start recreating some of the amazing dishes I had in Greece and Italy.

In the meantime, I am breathing some new life into an old recipe here and I hope you like it! I first made these gorgeous kebabs years ago and it wound up being a summer staple that I still make today, so I knew I had to re-intro them for you.

I absolutely love the combination of Salmon and fruit (as if you haven’t received that message loud and clear!) and I feel like the sweet and tart flavors of strawberries and nectarine are absolutely perfect compliments.

I also like that anytime you make a kebab, you need less protein, and you get more of the sides, like veggies, or in this case fruit! You make a lot of food, they are super healthy and delicious and have the added benefit of being entertaining worthy pretty and SOOOO easy!
