About Grilled peaches

Grilled peaches are a versatile and nutritious treat commonly associated with Southern and American cuisine, though enjoyed globally in various culinary styles. Peaches are native to Northwest China but have become a summer staple worldwide. Grilling enhances their natural sweetness by caramelizing the fruit's sugars and adds a smoky flavor. Nutritionally, peaches are low in calories (about 50 calories per medium peach) and rich in vitamins A and C, dietary fiber, and antioxidants like beta-carotene. They are naturally low in fat and sodium, making them heart-healthy and a refreshing option for desserts, salads, or side dishes.
