Balsamic-Glazed Oranges

justcallmetoni's Note:

While the combination strawberries with balsamic vinegar is common in many dishes, the sweet-acidic balance of the vinegar pairs well with other fruits. This dessert whips up in a heartbeat and is the perfect ending to an Italian meal.

I picked up a bag of Blood Oranges and a bag of Pink Grapefruit from Trader Joe's this earlier this week. The combination with the drizzled Balsamic Glaze is such a treat I keep forgetting it is healthy. I am so hooked on it that I had to rate this recipe and thank you for sharing it!

A fabulous ZWT2 find! So simple; so delicious! We love citrus flavours so I'll be making this often. I used 3 oranges and one grapefruit. And we thoroughly enjoyed it with a generous dollop of Greek yoghurt. Thanks for sharing!

Super recipe. I must say that I am most-often awed by the simplest of things - this recipe is one of those wonders. Very simple to make, lovely to eat. Made to serve alongside crepes at a World Cup Finals party.
