Grilled Fruit with yogurt dip

This recipe can also be made indoors using a grill pan. To grill other, smaller types of fruit outside, use wooden skewers that have been soaked in water for an hour.

Ingredients:

1/4 cup light brown sugar
1 Tbsp water
1 large banana(s), cut diagonally into 1/2-inch pieces
2 plums, cut in half and pitted
1 cup pineapple, about four rings
2 apricots, cut in half and pitted
1/8 tsp ground cinnamon
1 cup fat-free cherry-vanilla yogurt

Instructions:

Preheat grill. Mix together sugar and water in a small bowl; heat in microwave until sugar dissolves. Brush syrup on fruit.

Place fruit on a clean, medium-hot grill. Grill, basting with syrup occasionally, until slightly soft with markings from the grill, about 3 to 5 minutes. Turn fruit and grill other side until quite soft, about 1 minute more. (Note: Grill time depends on ripeness of fruit. Keep your eye on it and remove each piece as it is done.)

Remove fruit from grill and sprinkle with cinnamon; serve with a small bowl of yogurt for dip. Yields 1/4 of fruit and 1/4 cup of yogurt per serving.
