Fruit desserts are my absolute favorite. There’s nothing like cooking or baking with fresh, seasonal fruit! These grilled peaches are perfect for this time of year. They only take a few minutes to make and they can be done outside. Win-win! So grab yourself 4 BIG juicy peaches and let’s get grilling!

First, you’ll need to cut the peaches in half and remove the pits. This is much easier with freestone peaches, trust me 🙂 You can probably tell which were clingstone and which were freestone in the picture above. Once the pits have been removed, brush the cut sides with a bit of canola oil. Then pop them onto a hot grill. You can use an outdoor grill OR an indoor grill.

Let the peaches cook for 3 minutes or so, then rotate them 9o degrees and allow them to cook for an additional 3-4 minutes. You want them to get nice and caramelized! When they’re done, pull them off and brush them with the butter, brown sugar and cinnamon mixture. Add a pinch of flaky sea salt on top as a finishing touch. This is optional, but I think it really helps balance out and enhance the sweetness of the fruit.

Serve them warm with a BIG scoop of vanilla ice cream. They’ll disappear in seconds! If you’re looking to go a slightly healthier route, you can always drizzle them with a mixture of honey, cinnamon, vanilla, and sea salt. Yum!!

Homemade truffled mushroom pizza that you can throw on the grill in the summertime or prepare in the oven during the winter months! So easy to make and taste like something you’d get at a fancy pizza parlor! Fancy truffled mushroom pizza.. at home. There are only a few things that make me as happy as movie night and homemade pizza on Friday evenings. If you asked me about an ideal Friday night in my mid-twenties, I guarantee that wouldn’t be my answer back then. But now. As I slowly creep up further and further in my thirties, I’ll gladly be in bed before midnight, stay in on the weekends and prefer it, and not only will I not complain about Brussel sprouts, I favor eating them. With all these new preferences, I also have started to like homemade pizza over your no-frills takeout pizza joints. There’s just something about being able to control the toppings, amount of sauce (or skipping it all together), and having the freedom to throw a big arugula salad on top of my truffled mushroom ...
