Want to add some color to your cookout? A wide range of colors not only adds visual appeal, but also gives you a variety of valuable nutrients.
We all love hamburgers and hot dogs as the standards at backyard barbeques, but sometimes it's nice to grill up something different -- something colorful. To spice up your cookout, try adding kabobs to your grilling repertoire.
The possibilities are endless when it comes to kabobs. As long as you can cut the food into similarly sized chunks -- and can run a skewer though it -- you can make a kabob out of it. It's that simple.
To make sure you get the most visually appealing, flavorful meal you can fit on a stick, here's a guide to the rainbow of colors you can use to craft the perfect kabob and what nutrients each color carries.
