Orange You Glad I Didn't Say Banana?

fitnesspirateninja

So, for reasons known only to herself, my grandma gave me about 10 oranges. I'd love to make something interesting with them (I do love eating oranges, but 10 is a lot for me and my husband to handle on our own). Does anyone have a good recipe that uses a lot of oranges?

Thanks!

Going anywhere soon? Or having company? Make a fruit salad!

temper some dark chocolate & dip the oranges. Talk about an antioxidant boost!

Bake them with chicken/pork in a marinade, put them in salads. I made this the other day and added some roma tomatoes, yellow bell peppers, boiled shrimp and a few red pepper flakes: http://www.rachaelraymag.com/Recipes/Asparagus--Orange-and-Blue-Cheese-Salad.

How about ORANGE JUICE It takes a lot of oranges to make a full glass and there is nothing more refreshing! Hopefully Grandma sent you Florida Oranges ... our farmers could use every little bit of help they can get!

Happy New Year!

Throw them at your Hubby when he acts up. **devil smile**

Only do this after he takes the trash out, cuz he might get grumpy after. :laugh:
