GRILLED PEACHES WITH COCONUT CREAM

GRILLED PEACHES WITH COCONUT CREAM
Grilled peaches are a great way to add variety and enjoyment to your fruit choices. Topping them with the coconut cream makes them even more satisfying. Simply refrigerate a can of full fat coconut milk and the cream will separate, rise to the top and harden. Most coconut milks contain some sort of “gum” to help thicken them. This ingredient is fine on your plan, but it does make whipping the cream difficult. If you can find a gum-free brand (Trader Joe’s does carry some), then you can obtain a nice whipped cream to use for berries, etc. Because of the heat from the grilled peach, the cream will melt here anyway and just adds to its flavor, so it will be great regardless. Enjoy!
