Grilled Peaches with Granola

I'm definitely a fan of peaches.  Generally I'm partial to all citrus or tangy fruits.  Yummy :)  Topping peaches with granola makes 'em even tastier!  
" Peaches and nectarines provide good sources of carotenes, potassium, flavonoids, and natural sugars... lycopene and lutein.  Lutein gives the red, orange, and yellow colors to fruits and vegetables.  These phytochemicals are especially beneficial in the prevention of heart disease, macular degeneration, and cancer."
