Broiled Grapefruit
We made this last night for a lighter tasting dessert.

Ingredients:
1 large grapefruit
1 Tablespoon Butter or Margarine
2 Tablespoons Brown Sugar

Directions:
Cut the grapefruit in half. A grapefruit has sections like an orange, so don’t cut it so you can get apart individual sections (vertical), cut it horizontal instead. Cut a bit of rind off each end so that the grapefruit half can sit easily on the baking tray without wobbling. Section off each bite of grapefruit by running a knife around each individual section. Place ½ tbsp. of butter or margarine and 1 tbsp. of brown sugar on top of the grapefruit half. Place the grapefruit halves on a baking tray in the oven (set to broil). When the butter is melted the grapefruit is done!
