     Never liked grapefruit (too bitter) but this recipe is fabulous! I tried it w/honey on 1 side of my half, and blueberry jam on the other. Both were tasty, but the jam was sweeter so I liked that better. I also topped w/sliced strawberries and grapes (which were particularly good). Thanks, Chef Meg! - 3/4/12

     i would think adding ground flax would be nice as well as super healthy. - 1/27/12

     Please be mindful of any prescription medications that might react with grapefruit or grapefruit juice. I love grapefruit but can't eat it now because I take a cholesterol medication, generic for Lipitor. Read labels on your medications! - 3/28/13

     I am not a big fan of grapefruit, but the honey and pistachios on top sounded good. So I did try this and was very surprised how good a grapefruit could be....with a little help. - 3/10/12

     Wow! I had no idea how good grapefruit would be served hot! And the touch of honey and nuts just tops it nicely. - 2/6/12

     I didn't use the pistachios. The warm grapefruit is such a nice treat. If you eat both halfs, it's very filling for breakfast! - 1/22/12

     My first experience with weight loss was at 17. My Aunt and I joined Weightwatchers to lose extra lbs. Second visit, I woke one morning to warmed grapefruit, honey and pistachios.

     Imagine?--Pistachios----good! - 2/6/12

     Back in the '70's when I was in Weight Watchers, we had a recipe for broiled grapefruit, much like this, but without the nuts, and broiled for a couple of minutes instead of baked. - 2/6/12

     I learned to like grapefruit after I learned to peel it and take the sections out rather than try to scoop out after it's cut in half. I found that leaving all the pith and peel behind made the grapefruit sweeter in the bowl... Now I'm going to do this and drop a few drops of stevia on it.. - 3/28/13

     I used walnuts on top, SO GOOD! loved this recipe. Never thought I'd eat a grapefruit without a ton of sugar, but now never again! - 12/17/12

     This really brought out the best in grapefruit, though I love it fresh too! I didn't have any pistachios, so I used pine nuts instead. :) Thanks for the great recipe! - 2/9/12

     Would truvia work just as well? - 2/6/12

     Good - 3/15/21

     We would eat grapefruit just like this (not baked) with our meals so this is so refreshing, a comfort food for me. Simply and yet, filling. The skin is what makes it bitter to me and the nuts add crunch the honey, a touch of sweetness. You could probably do any citrus like this. So good and go - 2/7/21

     Honey and tree nut allergies had me alter this to agave nectar and sunflower seeds, but very good! - 2/7/21
