    Peanut butter and cream cheese on toast with cucumbers and grapes!

    Mango salsa and tzitziki sauce mixed on pita chips

    Guacamole and cucumbers (not that weird I guess)

    I cook quinoa and combine it with sauteed spinach and mushrooms... then mix in a little cream of celery. I find that this is FANTASTIC!

    Peanut butter and fresh jalapeno or habanero sandwich. Chiles and peanuts area great combo.

    I don't think the sweet potato/peanut combo is too weird. I make Thai curry with sweet potatoes in it and top it with peanuts, it's a good combo.

    My dad gave me this when I was little because he thought I was too skinny, and didn't want me to be lanky when I got taller.

    I still like the taste of it today, and although it's probably horrible for you, it's good for people who want to gain weight fast ( all fat though lol)

    Peanut butter and mayo sammiches.

    I found that thinly sliced carrots actually taste pretty good dipped in salsa. It all depends on the salsa (and how hungry you are), but it works! Might not be too bad with guac, either...

    Another thing that I found was a "wierd" substitute was a dip for asparagus or artichoke. Traditionally, I used to slather that stuff in regular Best Foods mayo, but last time I used 2 tbsp of light sour cream, a squirt of lemon and mustard, a little seasoning salt, and some curry powder for a little something different. It was good, and about 1/4 of the calories I would normally eat. Experiment and see what works for you.

    My last one's not "weird", but Stuffed olives are a good snack when you're craving something spicy or salty. I always have some garlic, habanero, and other miscellaneous olives in the fridge for my 10pm stomach growls.

    Ooh! I love peanut butter and bread and butter pickles. My husband thinks it's crazy, but I've got one of my teenagers eating it.

    Ooohh, just thought of some more...

    --peanut butter and tuna salad sandwich (started that one when I was pregnant and it stuck)

    --peanut butter spread on cold pizza (not something I do anymore)

    I seem to have a theme going here. Maybe I should have called the thread "weird things with peanut butter". LOL!

    Carrots and salsa? Yes I totally do this! Good snack for when I am making dinner and I'm hungry.

    Add La Choy crispy noodles to the cottage cheese and green peas and I'm there. So good!

    I love cooked ground beef sloppy joe style with barbecue sauce and then a big dollop of cottage cheese mixed in.

    French fries dipped in honey, or Mac and Cheese sandwich- slice of bread with butter, mac and cheese on top with plain chips inside for crunch. Only weird things I do that I can think of.

    White toast with liver sausage (liverwurst) and grape jelly.

    Freaking amazing. My grandma had me eating this as a young child and I still love it as an adult. Terrible for you, but delicious!

    I LOVE steamed rice slathered in ketchup. Always have.

    That sounds SO good.
    I love ketchup on anything, but I don't have it too often these days.


    I love french fries dipped in vanilla shake. YUM.

    Nutella and Cheddar. I know, it sounds horrid.. but I can't say no. O.o

    When I was pregnant, I would eat cracked pepper and sea salt kettle chips with nutella...

    another favourite I have is tater tots with syrup and sour cream
    and tortilla chips with bbq sauce and Mexican cheese (I like to call them white trash nachos)

    steamed white rice mixed with milk and sugar

    mayo and cheese on a baked potato

    ketchup on scrambled eggs (I hear this is fairly common but I still get weird looks when I do this)

    Doritos dipped in cottage cheese

    My all-time favorite... Peanut butter and syrup sandwiches. You have to let the syrup soak into one side of the bread and then put a thick layer of peanut butter on the other side... so delicious!! :)

    Right now my "weird" food combo is a romaine lettuce leaf with an 1/8th of a cup of mozzarella, covered in Cholula, topped with a small slice of ham (also liberally doused in Cholula) and an optional 1/2 tablespoon of mayo, eaten as a wrap, although last night I had this with sausage instead of ham and it was quite tasty, so I may branch off into different cheese and meat combos. . .but I gotta have my Cholula and cheese mixed together!
