Four Foods on Friday (48)

#1.  Melon. What’s your favorite kind?

Have to be honest, not a huge melon fan.  I’d have to go with watermelon if I absolutely had to choose.

#2.  Orange citrus. What’s your favorite – oranges, nectarines, navel oranges, tangerines, etc.

Mmm, oranges.  I especially love the smell of oranges and orange juice dripping down my chin.

#3.  Oreos. What kind is your favorite? (Don’t eat Oreos? What about olives?)

OMG I cannot tell you how much I LOVE Oreos.  Please see this post for details.  Oreos are my weakness, really they are.  If I had to choose between Oreos and my fiance, well I’d probably choose my fiance, but it would be a tough call.

#4.  Pot pie. Share a recipe. (No pot pie recipe? What about a casserole or some other hot meal you bake?)

I’ve never made a pot pie although my fiance has requested it.  Here’s a recipe for Chicken Divan that my mom makes.  I haven’t baked it in a long time, but this might be the inspiration I need.
