When I was growing up; we also had the commodity meat[ looks like Spam, from the government, for low income families].
I used to make a Spanish Rice recipe and add the Spam lookalike meat to that.
Also would make Pizza burgers with it.
1can Spam- ground up using the old box grater
1 lb hamburger
1 small onion, chopped/grated
1 can tomato soup
pizza spices[oregano, parsley, thyme,garlic powder-whatever you like, as desired]
open face hamburger buns
Fry hamburger, onions, spam- until brown
Add tomato soup , spices.Heat through. Spead buns with meat mixture.Sprinkle cheese over top. Bake in 350 f oven until browned. About 1/2 hour.
Could have added green peppers[cooked along with the meat mixture] and also mushrooms.
REALLY DIDN'T HAVE PRINTED OUT RECIPES FOR THESE TWO FOODS BUT THEY SURE TASTED WONDERFUL AS TEENAGER.
