Ingredients:
2 Tablespoons vegetable oil
2 Tablespoons brown sugar
2 Tablespoons fresh lime juice
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 cup fresh mint, chopped
2 apples, cored and cut into 1" pieces
2 bananas, peeled and cut into 1" pieces
2 peaches, pitted and cut into 1" pieces
4 kiwifruit, peeled and sliced into 1" thick sections

16 strawberries, washed and hulled

Directions:
Prepare grill.

In a small bowl, combine oil, sugar, lime juice, cinnamon and mint. Mix until sugar is dissolved.
