Grilled Fruit Skewers with Key Lime Yogurt Dipping Sauce

We’ve got something a little different for you today. Grilled fruit. I’m not pretending to have invented grilled fruit or anything. But it is not something we usually do. Grilled vegetables- all the time. Grilled fruit- almost never. After this little snack that is all about to change though. Why have I never been a fruit griller before? Officially a convert. Officially on the grilled fruit bandwagon for life!

 

When we made this grilled fruit we included pineapple, nectarines, mango, and strawberries. We loved the pineapple, nectarines, and mango. Didn’t love the strawberries so much. I omitted the strawberries from the recipe below but obviously they are pictured. I just dont like warm, soft strawberries. At least now I know. But the pineapple, nectarines, and mango? Nothing sort of delicious. And with that dipping sauce? To die for! Fire up your grill and make some yummy fruit!


Here is what you’ll need

Prepare your fruit

Mix together the lemon juice and the coconut oil

Place the fruit on skewers and brush with the coconut oil/lemon juice

Start grilling the fruit

Sprinkle the fruit with the coconut and serve as a refreshing snack or dessert.
