The SPAM Pasta hail mary

I had high hopes for dinner tonight. A fellow SPAMFAN sent me a recipe for a SPAM pasta with spicy peanut butter sauce, and I was pumped.

So pumped apparently, that I threw out my cooking instructions after purchasing the ingredients yesterday. Go figure.

Of course, I didn't realize this until dinner was underway.

It wouldn't have been a big deal if I wasn't mixing vinegar, peanut butter and hot sauce... but I'd say in this situation, measurements were pretty freaking critical.

Anyway, it was too late and I was left to winging it.

I can't tell you what happened - the whole memory is a blur. I was adding liquids to thin out the sauce, and then again to fix the taste, and then I was adding more peanut butter to thicken it back up. It was too spicy, then too sour... you get the idea.

And right as I was about to give up and eat my SPAM Pasta sans the sauce, everything clicked.

Suddenly I had this:


And I... cannot even tell you... how unbelievably good it was.

Or ever try to remake it for that matter.

The best I can probably do is give you the list of ingredients and let you play the part of the blind sow.

And then say good luck, little warrior... good luck.

Ingredients:
Fettucini noodles, SPAM Classic, red and yellow peppers, cilantro, peanut butter, seasoned vinegar, hot sauce, water

I'm sorry to say that the Cajun SPAM Sandwich is no longer with us in the top 5.

AHH..What kind of hot sauce did you try?
I'm the one who sent you the recipe.
Peanut Butter
Sweet Chili Sauce
Seasoned rice Vinegar (To taste)
Mix together in a bowl to make a creamy sauce. Don't make it too runny. You add as much sweet chili sauce to your liking also
Dice up Spam
Dice some onion
Chop up a small amount of Cilantro
You can add red/yellow/orange bell peppers.
Boil your pasta (linguni or fettucunni noodles)when done, drain and put in bowl. Add your sauce and other ingredients and toss to coat. Any questions you can email me at tupperwaresales@windstream.net

The Epson Movie - Mate projector features versatile connectivity, including HDMI support, which have made it easy to enjoy,
while having more entertainment options. This happened while
an investigation regarding the circumstances of the untimely death of Jackie Kastrinelis
was conducted, says Cruise Law News. Overall, the still image output of Casio EX-S200, is quite
mediocre.
