Cook's Tips:
1. To prepare on gas grill, preheat grill according to manufacturer's directions for medium heat. Grill kabobs covered, 7-9 minutes for medium rare doneness, turning once.
2. If pumpkin pie spice is not available, 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/8 teaspoon ground ginger, 1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg and a dash ground cloves may be substituted for 1/2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice. Combine seasonings in small bowl.
