Grilled Pineapple

Top off a successful barbecue meal with this deliciously simple grilled dessert! Grilling is not just for meat and vegetables, it’s also a great way to prepare fruits. Grilling brings out the sweet juices and caramelizes the sugars for a rich flavor. This recipe is for grilling pineapple slices, but you can also treat apricots, peaches, and plums in a similar fashion. Top off the grilled fruit with vanilla ice cream, or Coconut Bliss frozen dessert!
