What do we need now? Aggressively orange recipes (either in color or in taste) in honor of the new season of “Orange is the New Black,” as we settle in for some serious binge watching must-see TV.
The new season of the must-watch “Orange is the New Black” is out Friday, July 27, 2018 on Netflix. Let the binge-watching begin.
We’ll need sustenance, you and I, as we settle down on the couch and glue our eyes to the most riveting thing on the screen. We might not come up for air, but we’ll come up for food.
The show is most definitely NOT rated G, but all of my food is very family-friendly.
Behold, the Orange Buffet!
Orange Things Fruit and Vegetable Smoothie
Tangerine Raspberry Citrus Cooler
Mango Orange Cream Power Smoothie
Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies
Sauteed Ginger Scallion Shrimp
Triple Hatch Chile Turkey Bowl

Lots of good stuff in this post !! Good job!!
This is such a fun roundup!
Delaney,
Thanks! It was fun to put together!
I love binge watching on netflix. And I love the round up for OTNB!
What a fun and cleaver idea. I really need to catch up on my binge watching. I’ve only seen the first two seasons of Orange and then sort of got out of it. Need to get back. All these recipes are so much fun!
Renee,
Thanks! I am holding off on this season until I get a project done. Otherwise I won’t even come up for air. That’s how addicting this show is.
Genius roundup ;-p big orange is the new black fan. I better start working through this list 🙂
Hahahaha, love it, Totally need to get a few of these done so I can indulge in my OITNB marathon. 😀
This is such a fun idea! I watched my first 2 episodes of the new season yesterday. My pick would be the Italian orange salad.
Jennifer,
You cannot go wrong with that salad. It goes with EVERYTHING!
Just spend Friday and Saturday binge watching OITNB on Netflix and now I wish I had these to snack on! It was a good season, btw!
Jessica,
I can’t wait! Thanks for not doing a spoiler-alert!
I have no idea where to file this on Pinterest, but it’s such a cute idea!
Renee,
You need a board for recipes, or TV, or Good Ideas!
I LOVE practically anything orange-flavored and this is a terrific roundup!
Oh, this is such a fun idea! 🙂 I have to admit that I haven’t seen this series yet, but I have friends who are obsessed with it.
Carrie,
I am one of the obsessed. 🙂
Great recipes to sit and watch the show all day!
Well I’m surprised at all the orange, although I guess I shouldn’t be! So many tasty treats you can enjoy during a watch party! 🙂
This is a great and unique collection! I need to start watching OINTB!
Sheena,
You DO! It might be my fave show, along with Grace & Frankie.
Love this idea (and this show!)
Christine,
Thank you! I am champing at the bit to watch the new season…waiting for my daughter to have time so we can watch it together!
I’m glad to hear that you are as obsessed with OINTB as I am! Looking forward to eating some orange treats while binge-watching. Also, if you haven’t yet, do read the book by Piper Kerman. Very thoughtful and insightful.
EBeth,
I have not yet read the book. Thanks for the reco, and I’m going to order it from the library right now!
Thanks for putting a smile on my face and a craving for your orange salad.
Judy,
The orange salad is SOOOO up your alley!
