For me, it’s chocolate with red chili peppers. I love making up a batch of chocolate brownies and adding a few crushed dried red chilis. No, it’s really good. Really. It’s even gooder if you add some cinnamon- it seems to bring the chocolate and the hot, spicy chili flavors together.
Well, the olives and pineapple sounds great, but the bbq on vanilla wafers? “Eewww.”
Lowcarbing gets me combining foods in odd ways. My oddest? Shredded pork barbecue scrambled in with eggs. Crab rangoon filling grilled with ham and spinach.
Raisin-bread grilled cheese sandwich. We were out of normal bread one day, and I really wanted one, so…I haven’t made it since then, but I’ve wanted to.
Peanut butter and jelly with cheese
Cinnamoned cocoa
Guacamole and cashew butter on Triscuit crackers
Pimento cheese on graham crackers
Sweet potato with sauteed onions and green peppers
I gotta admit, next to some of the entries in this thread, my dad’s enjoyment of “piggy frosting” (peanut butter, butter, and jam or marmalade, all mixed together and eaten with a butterknife) is pretty tame.
However.
Once, my dad and my brother got into a contest to see who could make the grossest sandwich and still eat it. My brother won with a peanut butter, ham, American cheese, M&M’s, and Fritos corn chips sandwich on Wonder Bread.
You should try hot chocolate the way the Aztecs used to drink it:
2/3 cup of boiling hot water, one teaspoon of vanilla extract, 3 tablespoons of unsweetened cocoa powder, and enough black pepper and/or chili powder to make it spicy.
Not that you’ll be able to taste the spiciness against the overwelmingly bitter taste of that much unsweetened chocolate. Ugh. I tried it once, and I still shudder at the thought of it.
