Thanks, I'll add that recipe to my collection. A can of sweet potatoes has a huge amount of nutrition - the most of any canned veggie. There is a reason it is that orange color - lots of vitamins, etc.

Here is a wonderful tasting dish I use with cut up bites of ham and the Spam would substitute:

Hawaiian Ham Supper
One box of Uncle Bens white and wild rice with seasoning packet (or use regular white rice or instant rice if that's what you have in emergency situation.)
Two cups or more of bite size ham (Spam) pieces.
One can pineapple chunks

Brown the ham (Spam) pieces with 2 tbsp. butter or other fat in an emergency.
Add the box of Uncle Ben's with seasoning packet or enough white regular rice or instant rice to equal a box which is about a cup of regular rice and two cups instant rice. If you use regular or instant, put in some seasoning like an Italian or French blend - not a hot pepper blend as this is a tasty sweetish dish.

Drain the liquid from the pineapple chunks and set chunks aside. Add enough water to the liquid to make 2 1/2 cups liquid (if using instant rice, just use 2 cups liquid).

Boil it until all liquid is gone. Add pineapple chunks and stir to make chunks warm/hot. EAT.

This is such a tasty meal with the Uncle Bens regular recipe wild rice box, I make it for people who visit and they eat it up. It makes a large skillet full although it doesn't look that way before it boils and takes up the pineapple juice/water.

I made it for my son when he was here this past Christmas (boy, did we have left over ham to use), and he just kept eating - I thought he was going to explode. It's so simple to do and yet so wonderful when it's ready. It looks like you have spent the day in the kitchen.

Your “SPAM or a DAK Ham” recipe sounds really good. I’m going to try it!

Campers/Hunters Spam & Kraut

1 can Spam sliced about 1/4’ - 3/8” thick.
Stack slices back on top of each other on a sheet of heavy duty foil.
top with a can of saurkraut (drained) and a can of apple pie filling.
Fold foil packet up tight and cook on grill, camp fire, oven, even on top of a stove.

Surprisingly good (except to Spam snobs).

Substitute a can of corned beef if you don’t have Spam.
No need to pre-slice the corned beef as it will break up easily after cooking.
