Does your family make a certain dish and call it by the totally wrong name?

Our family makes a casserole with cut up hot dogs, baked beans, ketchup, mustard, dried onion, garlic powder and brown sugar with a topping of those Durkee fried onions (put on during the last 5 minutes of baking). We call it Weenie Beanie Casserole! Don't know if it has an official name but we have always called it that. I got the recipe from my MIL as they always had in their family growing up. Probably a depression era recipe. Its quite good!

That sounds like a recipe made up by a 10-year-old. It also sounds pretty good!

It's pistachio salad in my family that said that is an actual alternative name for watergate salad (I've seen it referred to as delight vs salad with pistachio but never IRL).

I have never heard of this and looked it up. Its a nope from me I would not eat that as I dislike marshmallows and pineapple mixed into things. I do however love pistachios and discovered pistachio cream on our Mediterranean cruise this summer, its creamy like nutella.

It absolutely sounds like a 10 year old made it up! And it is good!!!
