A Chocolate Covered Grilled Coconut With Sea Salt Recipe

While you might think of coconut as a fruit, this tropical food is technically a fruit, a nut, and a seed, per the Library of Congress. Inside you get a whole lot of fat, so a little goes a long way, but one thing you may not consider it for is its fiber — each raw piece measuring 2 inches by 2 ½ inches offers 4 grams (g), as the U.S. Department of Agriculture notes, making it a good source of the filling nutrient. Grilling coconut deepens its flavor and dries it enough so that the pieces can be dipped in decadent dark chocolate. A pinch of sea salt rounds out this delicious summertime dessert perfectly! Here’s some inspiration for enjoying coconut this way. Serves 12
