My ped didn't have us do one color at a time, so we started with sweet potatoes, and then did green beans, peas and butternut squash.

Re: What vegetables first?
We didn't go by colors either, but the first green one we did was peas because I think they are a bit more palatable than green beans.

Re: What vegetables first?
I started with fruits and veggies at the same time.
I think my first was apple or bananas.
My DS hates the green veggies.

Re: What vegetables first?
I didn't start with greens first. We did butternut squash and sweet potato first. I will do avocado and green beans next. I hold off on peas because I found them to be gassy when I gave them to my older kids. I don't do carrots until later as well because of the nitrates.
I also started fruits around the same time. Did bananas, apples, pears. Going to try mango and plums soon.

We never followed a specific pattern but did the most universally liked foods: squash, carrots, bananas, peaches, pears, sweet potatoes, and apples. From there we have done peas, grn beans(both my kids hate these lol), beets, mango, yogurt, berries, and so on. We have a CSA so I usually make him whatever we get in that our what looks good at the farmer's market. He is loving beets, zucchini/tomatoes, and mangos right now. It's so cheap and easy to make!

Re: What vegetables first?
Ped had us do green first and alternate green and orange/yellow (since he said it could give skin orangy color.)
We did fruit after we got through the basic veggies.
