Temple Oranges are a Sweet and Healthy Treat

By: The Hale Groves Team | On: | Category: Healthy Eating

It’s hard to find a snack or dessert that is sweet and delicious but is also good for you. Temple oranges are one of the few snacks that you can eat yourself and give your family that are healthy and taste fantastic. Temple oranges are a hybrid fruit and have the sweetness and juiciness of a Mandarin orange and the tang of a tangerine. They are usually medium sized pieces of fruit so they are perfect for kids because they are not too big. They also are easy to peel and have very few seeds, which makes them easy for everyone to eat even if they’re on the go. Keeping Temple oranges in the car is a great way to make sure that there’s always a healthy snack close by. Temple oranges, like other citrus fruits, can withstand both cold and warm temperatures easily so they keep well in the car, in your purse or backpack, or in your desk drawer at work without spoiling. Next time you are craving a sweet treat in the middle of the afternoon you can recharge with a delicious Temple orange instead of an unhealthy candy bar or high calorie coffee drink.

Temple oranges, like tangerines, grapefruit and other citrus fruits, are full of Vitamin C which your body needs to stay healthy. They also contain B Complex vitamins, Potassium, Magnesium and other vitamins and minerals that will make sure you stay healthy. Eating just two Temple oranges can provide all of the Vitamin C that you need in a day and it’s easy to eat two Temple oranges everyday because they taste great. With less than 100 calories per fruit Temple oranges are a guilt free snack you can eat anytime. You can even grab an orange on your way out the door if you’re rushed in the morning and you can still get a healthy and low calorie breakfast instead of stopping at the drive through for a high calorie and high fat breakfast of fast food or getting a bagel with your coffee. Some bagels can more than 600 calories and won’t even keep you full all morning. High fiber low calorie Temple oranges will keep you full and give you the nutrition you need to have energy all morning without all those extra calories.
