Oranges are one of the most healthful fruits around -- and one of the most versatile. On the health side of things, oranges are just chock full of vitamins. Known best for their extremely high vitamin C content, oranges also contain vitamin A, which is an important antioxidant, and B6, which helps with healthy skin and fighting fatigue. Oranges contain potassium and calcium, are a great source of fiber, and may even help lower cholesterol. They also help prevent kidney stones and boost respiratory health, among other benefits. No wonder oranges are listed as a superfood! While you get the most health benefits out of oranges by simply peeling them and eating them raw, that's not exactly the most inspired way to eat them. You can certainly add raw orange slices to salads and they're always a welcome snack -- but you can also add orange into meals in so many more ways! From sauces to sorbets, from sweet to savory, from breakfast to cocktails, check out these recipes for inspiration on adding this superfood to every meal.
