Uncommon Food Pairings

Some things just go together: peanut butter and jelly; chocolate and caramel; peas and carrots.

But, what about those weird little mixtures that we somehow stumble upon and learn to adore?

You know, the uncommon food pairings that make your friends and family look away each time you indulge.

I don't think my palate craves too many uncommon food pairings. But, I have received a few odd glances when I:

• Melt cheddar cheese on apple pie
• Add grape jelly and ketchup to homemade baked beans
• Put chopped, fresh tomatoes on scrambled eggs
• Mix peanut butter into vanilla ice cream

Do these sound weird to you? What uncommon food pairings do you enjoy?

Until Next Time,
Choose Healthy!
