Four Foods on Friday #48
Friday is here and after a wicked headache yesterday, I am so glad to see it. We are almost ready for a weekend full of scrapbooking. Val over at Fun, Crafts and Recipes has another great set of questions for Four Foods on Friday. Be sure to check out her blog and join in on the fun. I have discovered how much we are alike in the foods we enjoy. Sometimes I am surprised at what my blogging buddies consider good eats. LOL
#1. Melon. What’s your favorite kind?
#2. Orange citrus. What’s your favorite – oranges, nectarines, navel oranges, tangerines, etc.
#3. Oreos. What kind is your favorite? (Don’t eat Oreos? What about olives?)
#4. Pot pie. Share a recipe. (No pot pie recipe? What about a casserole or some other hot meal you bake?)
#1 We have been blessed with yummy sweet tasting watermelon this year.
#2 I love a good navel orange; the kind where the juice runs down your chin when you eat it.
#3 I don’t care for Oreos. It is the one cookie I can keep in the house and not be tempted to eat the bag full. I do like Oreo Blizzards from DQ.
4. I make pot pies using Pillsbury crusts from the freezer department at the grocery. I roll them out thinner because I don’t care for the thickness they are straight out of the box. A thinner crust seems to be flakier, the way I like it!
I boil 3 chicken breasts for 1/2 hour then shred or chop the meat.
I saute 2 tablespoons of chopped onion in 2 tablespoons of butter or margarine. Add 1/3 cup flour and a dash of salt. You can use a little chicken broth to get the consistency of white sauce you like. Cook until hot and bubbly and thickened. Then add a package of thawed peas and carrots.
Dump in the chicken and stir.
Pour into the crust which has been placed into the bottom of a floured 9″ deep dish pie pan. Cover with top crust. Pinch edges of crusts together. Cut slits to allow steam to escape. Bake for 20 minutes at 425 degrees. You can put foil over the edges of the crust to keep them from burning.
This very hot when it comes out of the oven so be careful. I like to serve it with some applesauce or a salad.
foods! yummm i really also love melon, i’m hungry
Oreo Blizzards from DQ.- OMG. Good call!
The Oreos best pairing is ice cream. You are so right.
I love those navel oranges too. Glad my “butt” comment got a laugh. You know what I mean on those? It’s like this weird growth and then it doesn’t taste as “orangey” as it should.
Sweet juicy watermelon, yum.
That recipe looks fantastic! Oreo Blizzards are delicious, and I also like the new YoCrunch yogurt with Oreo mix-ins.

I love Blizzards! Hey, we own a floor covering store so if you ever need any advice in picking out your floors, don’t hesitate to ask. We sell Konecto. It is a great product. There are different grades of carpet that are made with Stainmaster yarn. Don’t just buy because it says Stainmaster.
Speaking of pot pies. I just had the most fabulous sheppards pie. Ok..if you never had a sheppards pie it’s mashed potatoes on top of ground meat with vegetables. It soo delicious and now i want to go out and get one. yuuummmm.
