Have you ever thought about trying grilled watermelon but don’t know where to begin? This is one of the tastiest and most healthiest desserts you can eat. It’s so simple to make and doesn’t take a lot of time and effort. The inspiration came from a restaurant and the quality is certainly “guest-worthy.” But also perfect for any ordinary day. It’s also Paleo and Whole30. Check out the how-to… with a video too!

 

 

Several years ago, Hubby and I went out to dinner and the dessert they served was grilled watermelon. This was the first time we had heard of it and we were super curious to try it. OHEMGEE!!!!! We talked about this dessert for weeks. Weeks, I’m telling you! And of course, I had to run out and buy a watermelon and try it myself. It was just as good as the restaurant. The recipe is super simple, and it only takes a few minutes to make.

 

 

I enjoy mine with just the balsamic vinegar, and if you are Paleo or Whole30, this version is for you. But if not, and you eat dairy, then adding some crumbled feta cheese kicks the flavor up a notch.

Be sure to purchase a good quality balsamic vinegar. Many towns have one of those specialty stores which stock flavored balsamic. A fig, pomegranate, or blueberry balsamic would be delicious. Even better!

Health Benefits of Watermelon

Watermelon is made up of over 90% water. Maybe that’s how it got its name? It’s high in Vitamin C, Vitamin A, Magnesium, Fiber, Potassium, Carotenoids, and Lycopene. The mighty watermelon may also help to improve heart health, lower cancer risk, clear the kidneys, relieve muscle pain, and boost eye health. It is also an antioxidant and is good for digestion.
