Here is another`recipe from Money Saving Meals magazine. I think is is even more weird than the previous recipe. It is right up there with this previous ravioli post.
Sweet 'n Sour Ravioli with Ham
2 cups diced cooked ham
1/4 cup chopped onion
2 tablespoons butter or margarine
1 can (1-lb.) sliced pineapple
1/4 cup brown sugar
3-4 tablespoons cider vinegar
2 cans (15 oz. each)
Bite-sized beef ravioli in tomato & meat sauce
4 large, pitted prunes ( yup, I am not making this up)
Saute ham and onion in butter. Stir in 1/2 cup pineapple syrup, brown sugar and vinegar. Bring to a boil. Add Mini Ravioli. Cover and simmer 5 minutes. Top with 4 pineapple slices and place a prune in the center of each slice. Simmer 5 minutes longer. Serves 4.

Odd and weird recipes from my large cookbook collection.
Weird Recipe Origins
While persuing my many cookbooks, adverstising booklets and cooking magazines I sometimes come across a recipe where I truely wonder what the originator was thinking. Sometimes they just sound like a terrible combination of ingredients. Other times it is what I call, the ingredient that doesn't belong. This is usually a food company trying to promote the use of their product in an inappropriate recipe. Recipes that might have found favor in past decades are sometimes so out of date they seem weird now.
