  • Nutritional Information:
  • Nutrition Profile: Friendly for Cardiovascular Health and Weight Management.  Dietitian’s Tip: To make this dish more Diabetes-friendly, replace the regular brown sugar with 1 tablespoon of Splenda Brown Sugar Blend and use fat-free, sugar-free vanilla frozen yogurt.
  • Ingredients:
    • 1 firm peach, halved and pitted
    • 1 teaspoon canola oil
    • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
    • 2 scoops vanilla fat-free frozen yogurt
    • 2 gingersnap cookies, crumbled
  • Preparation:
  • Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat, and lightly oil the grate. Brush peach halves with canola oil. Place peach halves on the preheated grill. Grill until tender and peach is warmed through, about 10 minutes. Place the hot peach on a plate, skin-side down.

    Optional: Sprinkle with brown sugar, allowing the sugar to melt. Alternatively, use a small cooking torch to caramelize the sugar. Serve each peach half with 1 scoop of low fat vanilla frozen yogurt and gingersnap cookie crumbles sprinkled on top.Grilled Peaches With Gingersnaps
