Grilled Tropical Fruit with Almond-Ricotta Sauce

Once you’ve got that grill all fired up for the main event, it only makes sense to finish off the meal with a grilled dessert.

Warm, caramelized pineapple and bananas are perfectly accented by a sweet almond-ricotta sauce. This is about as easy as dessert can get!

– vanilla Greek yogurt – fat-free ricotta cheese – packed brown sugar – almond extract – fresh pineapple

Lay pineapple crosswise on grates and close the lid. Turn pineapple occasionally to develop grill marks on all sides.

In the last few minutes of grilling, add unpeeled bananas to the grill, peel side up and crosswise on grates.

Remember that grills vary widely in temperature settings, so the settings and times you use may need to be adjusted according to your specific grill.
