Cheesy Prune Kabobs

Cheesy Prune Kabobs are delicious to serve as an appetizer or snack. Fabulous mixture of flavors and textures.

Ingredients:

• ½ lb. large or extra-large prunes, soaked and pitted
• 6 tbsp. dry sherry, your favorite wine or juice
• ½ lb. Edam, mild Cheddar or your favorite ‘melting’ cheese
• 3 tbsp. oil
• Black pepper

Cut cheese into cubes, large enough to stuff into the centre of each pitted prune (about ½”). Place a piece of cheese into centre of each prune and if possible, let a strand stick out so that it will be visible once melted. Thread stuffed prunes onto long metal skewers (4-6 per skewer). Brush top of prunes with oil and place on broiler pan or grill.

Place under hot broiler until cheese begins to melt - it may brown along the edges but not too much. If desired, sprinkle hot prunes with pepper and serve hot.

Note: You can substitute pitted fresh dates or even fresh figs for the prunes.
