Nora is addicted to oranges. She LOVES eating oranges at almost every meal- I think she would eat 5-6 a day if I would but peel them for her. I before I put them up on the counter from our shopping trip- I even found her trying to eat one- peel and all!
She is really good about eating them too- I just peel and then divide up the sections. She chews up each section and manages to eat it without choking on it.
There is tons of fiber in each orange- so Moms- you know what that means diaper wise! But I am so glad she is enjoying a fruit because she has decided she no longer likes bananas where a few weeks ago she was eating 2-3 bananas a day.
Now I just need to get her to enjoy veggies just as much!

Tate and Sullivan love mandarin oranges. They also like bananas and Tate loves to eat apples. All I have to do is take off the sticker, wash it, and take off the stem. When he's done, he tells me to give the rest to Stetson (one of our horses.)
As far as veggies, they love lima beans, peas, and green beans. Carrots- not so much.

LOL! she COULD have worse addictions. I'm that way with a lot of fruit, I just love it and have to keep myself from stuffing my mug with it all the time.You might try adding orange juice and cut up orange slices to green beans or broccoli, they are actually good that way, just add the fresh cut up slices with the vegies and a bit of juice and see if you sweetie takes a nibble
