Honey Grapefruit Halves Recipe Rating 4

I like to experiment with quick, economical meals using citrus from our own groves. Our packinghouse crew tells me this slightly sweet side dish is one of my best. It's a real eye-opener at breakfast!—Peterson's Groves and Nursery, Fred Peterson, Vero Beach, Florida

Tip

Refreshing Twist for Grapefruit

“Sprinkle sugar and drizzle a small amount of grape juice over a sectioned grapefruit half,” recommends Marjorie C. of Troy, Ohio. “Do this the night before, and in the morning when you take the grapefruit from the fridge, you’ll have a refreshing new twist on plain grapefruit.”
