Paula Deen Is Trying to Kill Us, Part 6: Cheesy Ham and Banana Casserole

I MADE THIS. Yes, it's true. I prepared this recipe at a friend's coaxing and really, it was mostly for a lark. I should've known better.

To "holdthemayo," your description of what it might taste like was quite astute. It had a very spongy texture and the banana permeated all layers.

The middle layer - ham and banana, blech - basically steamed between the bread layers.

It was revolting. I couldn't even chuckle once it came out of the oven and I tasted it.

This woman must be stopped. She is either insane or is sincerely trying to kill us.

Paula likes to say, "I'm a cook......not a doctor." Her accent is completely real and there are many Southerners who sound just like her! She is a happy woman who is laughing all the way to the bank. She and her family are very generous. To see photos of them at a recent benefit for Safe Shelter (for abused women and children) in Savannah, please go to spotted.savannahnow.com and type PAULA in the search box.

How in the name of Betty Crocker does she come up with this crap? I have a suggestion for her concerning the banana.........

You know people make fun of that type of cooking...like it's s000000 fattening , but the reality is, don't eat th whole dish! I think if you have balance you can pretty much eat and enjoy everything....(that's wy I run!!!) ..don't focus so much on Paula, focus on the many drive thrus....god knows what your eating or better yet what crawls in there and you eat it anyway!!!!!!!!!That is the stuff that really kills you! At least her food is made fresh, peole love it or she wouldn't be the success she is! Go Paula...!!!!!!!!!!!

there is a limit to wasting food. this isnt about being thrifty. Thrifty would havebeen maybe a banana bread pudding, and maybe simple grilled ham on the side, leave out the chips completely. better yet a grilled ham sandwich. thei is how to put together the nastiest thing possible and make people actuallly believe it might not be totaly revolting. I dont think much of Paula Deen as a cook, but as a saleswoman she is tops.

I love Paula, but I must admit that I would not give this a try. Remember though that Paula grew up in a time when times were tight and there are many recipes created just using what was available at the time...this definitely seems like one of those recipes, especially with the bread pudding influence...the idea of bread pudding was to leave nothing wasted. However, I would have to be wasted before I tried this recipe.

And after reading the other entries about her trying to kill us, she's a horrible, horrible woman! I shall have to tell my mother at once to stop watching her show and beg her NOT to cook these recipes. She's trying to kill my mother, too.

Come on fellow foodies, this is "Paula Deen is trying to kill you" right? Welllllllll that is her mission, to kill us all. This is only the beginning of whats to come fellow foodies stay tuned, she will concur up something more cheesier, fattier, buttery, gooier, vile and discusting (ier), in no time at all. Be patient "Y'all".

This. Makes. No. Sense.

None.

I love Paula, but I think the people over at Food Network have hit her with some crazy gamma rays and turned her into an Incredible Southern Fried Hulk, intent on creating gratuitously grotesque food for sheer shock value.

Maybe with some major revisions (like whole grain bread, no potato chips, skip the bananas, reduce the quanities of meat, add some veggies, use 2% cheese), this dish may be made somewhat healthful. But then again, it wouldn't really be the same dish.

Erin's right, it's now officially "classy. I'd suggest that the parsley is the only healthy/wholesome/nutritious element in the whole damn dish (yeah there are bananas but they're all mooshed in with the awful stuff).

I love how the picture has a parsley garnish on top. That's how you know it's fancy.
