Health Tip Of The Week

Want a healthy dessert? Grill fruit!

Instead of fat-laden ice cream or cake, create a low-fat, low-sodium treat with the grill. Try pineapple or any firm fruit. Because fruit usually cooks quickly, depending on the thickness of the slices, you'll need to keep a close eye on it.
