- Add the Florida Grapefruit juice until it covers half of the vegetables, then the honey and a cup of water. Season with salt and pepper.
- Cover the pan while allowing some steam to escape. Simmer until the liquid has evaporated. Cook until the vegetables will be cooked and tender.
- Meanwhile, whip together the goat cheese with the heavy cream together in a mixer. Season with salt and pepper and a drizzle of olive oil. Chop the bunch of chives.
- Put half of the chives in the goat cheese mixture and keep the other half for serving.
- Once the vegetables are cooked, arrange them on the serving dish. Add the Florida Grapefruit segments on top, pomegranate seeds and chives, and a drizzle of olive oil.
- Serve hot with the goat cream and enjoy!
