Week 1 - Weird Al

The 2022 challenge started off with Weird Al, and there were a lot of options here because there are a lot of Weird Al songs that deal with food. After a little looking around, I decided on the song Spam, because it was a good excuse to make something new with Spam, something that B absolutely loves to eat.

I ended up combining Spam with another thing that B loves - pizza - for a Spam Hawaiian pizza. Pineapples on pizza are controversial to a lot of people, but we love it, along with other more unique pizza toppings like bananas. That banana curry pizza from last year's challenge was one of our favorite things we tried, and our love for exploring different toppings on pizza has led to an additional development to the AtWCC (but I'll save that for another post whenever I finally get around to recapping those, hopefully soon).

Hawaiian pizza usually has pineapples, red onions, cheese, and ham, but here, I replaced the ham with Spam, for a delicious salty and tasty combo.

This was a big hit with our family, and we would definitely do this again. After a disappointing end to last year's challenges (that akutaq, if you missed it), it was nice to start the year on a high note.
