Hello dear Swapatorium readers! For this month's vintage recipe installment I wanted to make something that looked really hideous. I wanted it to be so hideous that it would turn your stomach and send you all scampering off to cash in a 'round trip meal ticket' by it's mere image. And then I found this....It's Broiled Ham and Lima Beans.
It's being smothered in a blanket of brownish yellow sludge! Yum yum! Well I proceeded to make this dish with such high hopes and well.... compared to mine, the original actually looks fairly appetizing. Tell me "it's hideous" folks, and make my day!
I had such expectations of an exact reproduction. I went wrong by using canned lima beans which have no color left to them, even though the " serving suggestion" image on the exterior of the can shows them in a lovely shade of bright green. LIES!! My second downfall was not using finely shredded sludge, I mean cheese. Learn from my mistakes friends. Flavor-wise it's not too bad at all, just keep your eyes shut while eating!

Wow, that's gross. You are my idol.
eeeeeeeeuuuuuuwww! It *IS* hideous, no doubt about it! I bet my mom would love it! LOL!
That looks disgusting! Doubled with the fact I hate legumes...yuck!
wow, the lima beans were bad enough, then I read the recipe: American cheese... The inhumanity!
LOL! My mother used to make a very similar dish using pork chops instead of ham. I hated it. Because of it I have an inordinate dislike for all things lima bean.
MMMMM, yummy, lol, i wonder if it's better w/cheddar.
Wow... it's amazing the things you can do with American Cheese.
