grilled grapefruit “sundae” with pistachios and basil vinaigrette

I challenged myself to create a sundae concept with no added sugar. This loosely-interpreted sweet-and-savory version is the result! I made Sweet Scarletts the star of the show because I had so many of them on hand. Plus, the naturally sweet red grapefruit is seasonal, gorgeous, and delicious! In this recipe, they’re halved and brushed with extra-virgin olive oil for grilling to bring out savory notes. Then these caramelized delights are topped with sprinkles of tangy cashew-based cheese, fresh basil vinaigrette, and pistachios. It’s cuisine outside of the normal boundaries … and definitely worth it.
