Grilling Fruit:

  • Natural sugars add sweetness without additional fat and calories

  • Beautiful colors! Remember, a colorful plate is a healthy plate < says my mom!

  • A simple way to tenderize fruit

  • Grilling brings out the flavor!

  • It’s fun!

  • Key tip… don’t over-grill the fruit. It will become mushy and no one likes mushy fruit. At least not for this recipe. 🙂
