These fun Peanut Butter Jelly Fruity Caterpillar Kebabs are loaded with fresh fruit and protein. They’re a healthy snack the kids can help to prepare!

This is a fun idea for breakfast or snack for all your family. The ingredients are simple pantry staples that you probably already have. I used creamy peanut butter, guava jelly and fresh fruits but you can use your own ingredients.

I also used sugar eyes that I had for my cake decorating but you can use a tiny piece of banana or a chocolate chip.
