Want a healthy dessert? Grill fruit!

By Mayo Clinic Staff

Instead of fat-laden ice cream or cake, create a low-fat, low-sodium treat with the grill. Try pineapple or any firm fruit. Brush the fruit lightly with canola oil and sprinkle with cinnamon. Then wrap in foil and grill. Keep a close eye it. Fruit cooks quickly.
