With melty cheese, juicy pineapple and salty ham, it's no surprise my daughter requests my kabobs on her May birthday. They're a fantastic way to get into grilling season.
Ingredients
1 can (20 ounces) pineapple chunks
1/2 cup orange marmalade
1 tablespoon prepared mustard
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1 pound fully cooked ham, cut into 1-inch cubes
1/2 pound swiss cheese, cut into 1-inch cubes
1 medium green pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces, optional
Directions
Drain pineapple, reserving 2 tablespoons juice; set pineapple aside. In a small bowl, mix marmalade, mustard, cloves and reserved pineapple juice. On 8 metal or soaked wooden skewers, alternately thread ham, cheese, pineapple and, if desired, green pepper.
Place kabobs on greased grill rack. Grill, uncovered, over medium heat or broil 4 in. from heat 5-7 minutes or until heated through, turning and basting frequently with marmalade sauce. Serve with remaining sauce.
