Dessert on the Grill: Banana Boat
The banana boat dessert incorporates chocolate chips and marshmellows that melt inside the banana peel on the grill. Simply wrap your banana boat in aluminum foil and place it over the flame, then enjoy! If you’re counting calories, why not try a healthy alternative with peanut butter (or Nutella) and some dark chocolate chips.

Dessert on the Grill: Grilled Watermelon
Grilled watermelon is a delicious dessert option that can double as an appetizer in the form of a grilled watermelon salad. When grilled with a thin layer of olive oil, the sugar in the watermelon caramelizes making it a perfect companion to balsamic vinegar, goat cheese, and arugula. It’s best to grill room temperature watermelon so it’s not hot on the outside and cold on the inside for a pleasant culinary experience.

If you’ve ever had grilled pineapple, it’s something you don’t forget. This recipe takes it a step further by adding a scoop of vanilla ice cream onto the warm pineapple after it’s fresh off the grill. With such little prep time, you can have dessert ready in no time!
