Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can I use other fruits instead of peaches, plums, and nectarines?
A: Yes, you can substitute other stone fruits like apricots or cherries. You could also experiment with non-stone fruits like pineapple or figs, though the grilling time may vary, so keep an eye on them.
Q: What can I use as a substitute for Greek yogurt in the dressing?
A: You can use plain regular yogurt or a dairy-free alternative like coconut or almond yogurt if you need a vegan or lactose-free option. Just ensure the yogurt isn't flavored to maintain the taste balance of the dressing.
Q: How can I make this recipe vegan?
A: To make the recipe vegan, substitute the Greek yogurt with a plant-based yogurt, replace the honey with agave syrup or maple syrup, and omit the feta cheese or replace it with a vegan cheese alternative.
Q: How do I store leftovers from this recipe?
A: Store any leftover grilled fruits and yogurt dressing separately in airtight containers in the refrigerator. The fruits can last for up to 3 days, while the yogurt dressing can be refrigerated for up to 5 days. Reassemble the salad just before serving.
Q: My fruits stuck to the grill. How can I prevent this?
A: Ensure your grill grates are clean and well-oiled before placing the fruits on them. Also, make sure the fruits are brushed generously with the chili-lime mixture, as the oil in it helps prevent sticking. Avoid moving the fruit once placed on the grill to allow proper searing.
Q: Can I prepare the dressing in advance?
A: Yes, the minted yogurt dressing can be made up to 2 days in advance. Store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator, and give it a good stir before drizzling over the salad.
Q: What are some serving variations for this dish?
A: You can serve this salad over a bed of arugula or mixed greens for a heartier dish. Adding toasted nuts or seeds like almonds or sunflower seeds can bring extra crunch. For a slightly spicy kick, sprinkle a pinch of cayenne pepper on the grilled fruits.
