Pro Tips for Success:

  • Use local honey for the best flavor and to support local beekeepers. It adds a touch of sweetness and natural goodness to your dish!
  • Try different toppings: Greek yogurt is great, but you can also add whipped cream, a scoop of vanilla ice cream, or even a sprinkle of chopped nuts for extra crunch.
  • Broil with care: Keep a close eye on the grapefruits while broiling. They can go from perfectly golden to burnt in just a minute or two!
