Some weird combinations work. My favorite example is grape jelly and chili sauce mixed at 50/50 each and slow cooked over meatballs. Sounds crazy but actually really tasty.

Basically a thai sweet chili sauce!

[–] vrek@programming.dev 1 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

What do you put it on besides meatballs?

[–] WiredBrain@lemmy.ca 2 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

It's great on fried chicken or even just white rice.

[–] vrek@programming.dev 1 points 3 weeks ago

Hmm, fried chicken could be interesting...

I remember when Buffalo Wings first came along, and I was wondering what I was supposed to do with the blue cheese dressing, and the server said "People say you dip the wings in it." I tried it, and it blew my mind.

Who would have thought? One of the great food inventions of my life.

That recipe is quite popular in the Midwest!

It's surprisingly hard to find chili sauce in Texas though...

[–] Grass@sh.itjust.works 2 points 3 weeks ago

that actually sounds reasonable though.

Baked apple/Velveeta casserole is waaaaay better than most would imagine. It's so, so good.

[–] vrek@programming.dev 3 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Ok... You got my curiosity, got a recipe?

This seems to be the one:

https://www.literatureandleisure.com/2015/01/recipe-cheesy-apples/

tl;dr:

  • 2 cans sliced apples* (well drained)
  • 8 oz. Velveeta cheese (grated/cubed)
  • 3/4 c. all purpose flour
  • 3/4 c. sugar
  • 1 stick butter – melted

Bake at 350 until browned/melted.

Well that does seem really easy...
