Paleo Hawaiian Skewers- Great for Travel and Camping!

These Paleo Hawaiian skewers are amazing! Those following a paleo diet know that pizza is almost impossible these days. But these Paleo Hawaiin Skewers are delicious Hawaiian pizza on a stick and yet still paleo-friendly!

My husband Kaleb loves pineapple. Fresh or grilled, he loves it all! He LOVED the pineapple smoothies in Costa Rica!

So when I threw out the idea to Kaleb that I might want to try making Hawaiian skewers, he was on board before I could get the full sentence out!

Why Not Paleo Hawaiian Pizza on a Stick?!

Who doesn’t love Hawaiian pizza? But if you are trying to remain grain and dairy-free, pizza is a lot more complicated. This recipe brings the toppings to you in one delicious conglomeration!

And this one is sure to be loved by even some of the pickiest eaters!

Paleo Hawaiian Skewers- Ingredients

Uncured Ham

I wanted to make this paleo compliant and, therefore, have specified uncured ham. You are welcome to use other types of ham if you aren’t following a paleo diet.

Uncured ham used to be hard to find here in Indiana, but lately, it’s available at our local grocery store (Meijer). Hopefully, you get just as lucky.

Honey, Coconut Aminos (or Soy Sauce), and Garlic

This is the glaze for the ham. It’s full of flavor and a perfect mix of sweetness, saltiness, and spice.

Maple syrup could probably be used in its place of honey, though I have not tried it.

Coconut aminos is a great gluten-free and soy-free alternative to soy sauce. You can use soy sauce if you are following a Paleo, gluten-free, or soy-free diet.

Pineapple

Who doesn’t love grilled pineapple?! It is full of flavor and pairs perfectly with ham!

Bell Peppers and Onions

The bell peppers and onions add additional flavors to the dish. They can be omitted or changed based on your liking.

Bacon

I love bacon on my Hawaiian pizza! It adds great flavor. But if you’d rather go without, that works too!

The bacon will need to be cooked before going on the skewers. This means you may want to plan this meal on the same day you’re already making bacon for breakfast or another meal. I like to make these skewers while camping. I cook up bacon and eggs with fruit in the morning and make extra bacon for Hawaiian Skewers in the evening. It works perfectly!

Grilling the Paleo Hawaiian Skewers

It’s my goal to develop recipes that work well for travel.

If you’re headed to an Airbnb with a grill, this is a great recipe!

If you can bring a portable grill, like a George Forman, this is a great recipe!

If you’re camping, this is a great recipe!

You can use a charcoal grill, gas grill, portable grill, campfire grate, or possibly even a skillet over the stove! This recipe is very versatile, and the methods with which you cook these skewers are completely up to you and the tools you have available!
