:: Retro Cook Off



Don't fear Ladies and Gents, I have Xmas covered, follow me to the path of deliciousness and no hassle!



Take the Spam, Peaches and Cream of celery soup cans, out of the cupboard and begin!


Open up your spam can, pop on a baking tray, slice, and pour over the peach juice and insert some peaches into the slits you have created, too!

It's Xmas so pop in a few cloves as well!

Put into a preheated oven, bake at 180 for 30 min, baste your Xmas ham often and sit back and soak in the spam/peach aroma's!





Mmmm now your impressed and so will be your guests!



Now for a soup/beverage!

It's often hot at Xmas and so you won't want to stand at the stove for this one!
So open up the can, pour soup into the blender with a cold cup of milk, and blend!
Now pour into your best Xmas cup and serve, the kids will love it!



To make this table decoration, clean the spam can, pierce a hole at the bottom, find a small child to colour in your tree, glue to a bamboo stick and insert!

  1. Hideous!! I was laughing from the moment I saw the ingredients pic! You had me at Christmas & SPAM. I am at a complete loss with that 'Soup Shake' drink - so gross. Thanks so much for joining. Think I'll pass on Christmas at yours this year...xx

  2. I am laughing hysterically about your soup shakes...and your deadpan comment, "The kids will love it."

    Leave it to you to come up with an artsy centerpiece too. That inverted Spam can is priceless.

    Isn't this fun? I haven't laughed this hard in a long time.

  3. The cooked spam actually looks edible! My kids are mad about making smoothies at the moment, I wonder what they would think of a delicious cold soup drink?Hmmm, not so sure about that one!

  4. Spew shakes more like!!!

    How many cans do you reckon those 50's housewives would've opened? Too many to count I'd say. I found one recipe which called for three cans of soup, let me clarify, three different FLAVOURS of canned soup in one recipe! Ewww!

    I haven't eaten Spam since I was little (I have a vague memory of Spam and tomato sauce sandwiches! Yuk!) and while I can't say your recipe has encouraged me to relive old memories it actually does look very pretty (I never thought I'd use the word pretty and Spam in one sentence!)

    I love Maccies sail and you for joining in x

  5. This is the second retro cook off post I've come across today and both of them have made me laugh uproariously. Honestly I'm going to follow the link to see who thought of this. It's the funniest thing I've seen in ages. Did you actually eat it??

  7. I was thirsty. Now I'm not thirsty. I think that means 'success' in the retro cook-off stakes!

    PS Am loving your instagram tassel pics. Am desperate to become a part of the tassel lifestyle.

  8. SOUP. I forgot about all the soup recipes. What in the heck were they thinking? Your table decoration is the best. I did not do any food styling at all for my entry. Rush rush. What a fun Friday night I am having.

  14. Hi Pippa,
    I think this might be too sophisticated for me......people might think I'm a snob if I served this......tehe.
    Very classy styling too......I'm now rethinking my Christmas decor!
