Del Monte Fruit & Veggie Fusions #sharethesuper

***Disclosure-Sample product was received.  All opinions stated are my own based on my personal experience.

Our kids are back in school and that means sack lunches, and after school snacks are in order.  Do your kids like to ear veggies?  Are you looking for healthy snacks for them to have?

New Del Monte Fruit & Veggie Fusions contain one serving (1/2 cup) of fruit and veggies in each cup.  They are available in three flavors: Peach Mango, Apple Pear Watermelon and Cherry Fruit Trio. 

A tasty blend of fruit in a lightly sweetened vegetable and fruit juice.  In case you missed what I said, this is equal to one combined serving of fruit and vegetables in each cup!  

Ingredients-Peaches, Vegetable Juices (Water, Pumpkin Juice Concentrate, Sweet Potato Juice Concentrate, Butternut Squash Juice Concentrate), Water, Sugar, Pear Juice Concentrate, Mango Puree Concentrate, Natural Flavor, Citric Acid, Ascorbic Acid (To Preserve Color), Beta Carotene (For Color).

My teen did not even realize he was eating some veggies in his fruit cup.  And he liked them!

Del Monte is celebrating the launch by hosting the #sharethesuper moments sweeps!  Moms and Dads are encouraged to share pictures and videos of kids being super (i.e. mastering a cartwheel, acing a spelling test, completing a chore chart) on Instagram and Twitter with hashtags #sharethesuper and #sweepstakes for a chance to win weekly prizes as well as a single grand prizes to fuel their family’s super interests.  

The sweeps is going on now through Sept. 18.  Visit www.ShareTheSuper.com to enter and for more info.

(Makes 6 (2 kabob) appetizer servings)

3 tablespoons honey

3 tablespoons lime juice, divided

3 tablespoons lite soy sauce, divided

2 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves, cut into (24) 1-inch pieces

Ground pepper to taste

2 cups DEL MONTE GOLD® EXTRA SWEET PINEAPPLE Chunks

1 medium Del Monte® red bell pepper, cut into (24) 1-inch squares

½ large Del Monte® sweet onion, cut into (24) 1-inch pieces

Peanut oil

To make basting sauce, in a small bowl whisk together honey, 2 tbsp. lime juice, and 2 tbsp. soy sauce until smooth.

Sprinkle chicken pieces with remaining 1 tbsp. of lime juice and soy sauce. Sprinkle with pepper to taste. Marinate 15 to 30 minutes.

Directions:

Preheat grill to medium-high. Thread chicken, pineapple, red pepper, and onion alternately on 12 (6-7-inch) skewers. Discard and leftover marinade. Brush lightly with peanut oil.

Grill for 10 to 15 minutes, turning to cook all sides. Brush with basting sauce the last 5 to 10 minutes. Serve any remaining sauce over kabobs.

Note:

For a spicy variation, omit ground pepper and sprinkle chicken with Jamaican Jerk seasoning to taste.
