Ha ha ha! Truly awful. Used to have this set, but I don’t remember that one. Mental block from horror, no doubt.
Don’t be too hasty.
Bacon and banana is still one of the best topping for pizzas.
The hollandaise is an interest touch though….
Bacon and banana? In which country is this considered “one of best topping for pizzas”?
Clearly, you have never been to Brazil.
Bacon, Banana on french toast with maple syrup… seriously. If you’ve not tried it, you need to be prepared for the awesomeness. The banana is fried in the same pan as the bacon allowing the fat to cause the sugars to crystalise in the banana. French Toast made with cream, spices and good quality gooey bread is mouthwatering-ly good. It’s a match made in heaven.
“It’s a match made in heaven” – yeah, because you died from a heart attack with all the fat and sugar! ^^
What sugar? He mentions maple syrup and the sugars in bananas. I think it’s refined white sugar that causes trouble, no?
And it’s hydrogenated oils that stick to your arteries, not bacon fat.
.
Welcome to the 3rd Millennium. We’ve learned a lot since the 1970s!
There is so much wrong with this besides fat and sugar.
I have a whole index file full of stuff like this, bought at a yard sale for something like $1. I’m fascinated by horrible cuisine from the 70’s, and my Betty Crocker Recipe Card Library circa 1971 never fails me….
I was dying to make this bizarre recipe and finally did… I was shocked… it’s delicious!
You are very, very brave.
You’re right — I’ve always fascinated with weird recipes! I used very fresh, almost green bananas, fresh lemon juice, Dubuque sliced ham and just a little yellow mustard. Since I detest packaged Hollandaise, I used this recipe I found online: http://www.food.com/recipe/quick-delicious-hollandaise-sauce-363705 It was the Hollandaise sauce that made the dish. This would make a good brunch item, if there’s anyone brave enough to try it!
It took a lot of cahones to make this.
Someone might think pineapple with ham is gross. Or applesauce on pork chops. Or mint jelly on lamb.
Why are people so narrow-minded?
Or is it simply more fun to screech “Ew gross” than it is to give serious consideration to a new suggestion?
Honestly it doesn’t sound terribly bad. I’ve seen much worse things in modern cookbooks and it’s not that expensive looking either. Even my broke self could make this without too much fuss.
Ahahaha! That is fabulous.
What kills my soul is that they didn’t even cut the black ends off the banana. Even I give the bananas that respect. lol
maybe you’re supposed to pick each banana up and eat it like corn on the cob, and discard the two end pieces…..
Forget the Hollandaise. Use the Pineapple Glaze instead!
Delicious! Made this for my family and they loved it.
yuck
