Orange Appeal
Oranges add color and great taste to winter meals!
Orange Appeal looks very bright and appealing served in a glass bowl, and it's a light and easy dessert to finish off a hearty holiday meal. As far as I'm concerned, the citrusy aroma of oranges is a must at Christmas time!8 ServingsPrep: 15 min. + chilling
