When we use the outdoor grill, I usually make several things at the same time to make the most of it especially because it gives everything such a nice flavor, for example, this Grilled Queso Fresco with Peach Sauce, which you can serve as an appetizer or for dessert. For example, the peach sauce can also be made of other fruits or a mix of strawberries, raspberries, and blueberries—many possibilities according to your family's taste. A touch of cinnamon or vanilla will be perfect if you decide to serve it for dessert. Or, as an appetizer, add rosemary or hot sauce. The sauce can be refrigerated for up to a week. Dare to make a different appetizer!
You can serve it on crostinis for an appetizer or Graham Crackers for dessert. This a fun idea for your next grill out.

Add peaches, sugar, cornstarch, lime juice, and water in a small pot. Stir and allow to sit for 1 hour.

Place on the grill and seal on both sides, 2-3 minutes per side.
