You'd never guess that a pair of these colorful kabobs has only 2g of fat total! An easy tomato-based mixture is used as a marinade and basting sauce to add just the right amount of sweet-sour taste to the shrimp, pineapple and veggies. -Pat Waymire, Yellow Springs, Ohio

These shrimp kabobs are a great way to use up leftover shrimp. I made them with some shrimp that I had leftover from a boil and they were delicious. The marinade really helped to tenderize the shrimp and the tangy flavor was perfect.
