I had a chance to buy an entire dining set of those plates at an estate sale for $200 and I really regret not getting them.

That gelatin is disgusting.

Growing up my mom went ape poo poo for some recipe she got from Mormons called "party chicken."

You take a bunch of chicken breasts, some sliced swiss cheese and bacon, layer them as such in a baking dish, and dump a bunch of cream of mushroom on it until you can't see what's underneath. Then cook until the chicken breasts are overdone. I think my mom liked it because there was no effort involved.

my only reference for mormon party food has led me to believe that mormon parties are not very good.

I suppose this isn't totally incorrect, but there's a surprisingly big difference between adding oil and egg separately at different steps or together, as mayo.

A much loved childhood recipe in our house was "chicken and broccoli"
Basically, you poach some skin-on chicken legs, skin them and strip off the meat in chunks.
Mix said meat with a can of condensed mushroom soup plus 1 big tablespoon of mayo.
Cook a head of broccoli, broken down into big florets.
Take 1 Dutch oven - make a layer of broccoli at the bottom, top with your chicken goop, top that with cheesy breadcrumbs, or a much better option, mashed potatoes topped with cheese.
Bake til golden
Eat.

I haven't had it in 20 years, but I bet its still pretty tasty.

(My mother was not a good cook, why do you ask?)

we had something similar and it was delicious. i still have the 30+ year old community cookbook from my childhood that has the recipe, complete with mystery splatter

Tbh the colored ketchup always felt "wrong" to me even when it came out (despite me ostensibly being in the target demo at the time of release)

The only use I ever found for green tomato sauce was to create blood effects for a high school stop-motion army men film project. We had green sauce, red sauce and mustard for the three armies. It was disgusting.

I remember the colored ketchup as having a slightly gritty texture, like what was giving it the color was a fine sand mixed in.

Amazing!
I remember that our version arrived as a handwritten note from my Aunt. Never knew where she got it. (This was in Ireland, in the early '90s)

edit: I just did a little googling, and the original dish was called "Chicken Divan", and was a signature dish in the Divan Parisienne Restaurant, in new York in the 1940's. It was considered a fancy, dinner-party dish well into the 1970's.

Pasta sauce needs to have a sharp flavour because you pour it on bland cooked dough, pumpkin is almost as bland as the pasta.
Pureed pumpkin is great for soups and quiche and such but I guess they figured people won't buy it for those.

So your sauce is reinforced with plenty of sausage meat, that sounds tasty but it's quite different from trying to flavour stuff with just pumpkin and some spices.
Tomato paste OTOH works quite well with some just spices and a bit of vingre because it's packed with flavour.

Not saying you need to cook like that, just making the point that pumpkin by itself is not very flavourful.

Just today I made some delicious pumpkin soup that had pasta in it, I can see something similar working as a normal pasta sauce. It's even spiced similarly to sweet pumpkin applications, since I used cloves, star anise, and cinnamon (along with bay leaves, cumin, onion, garlic, and fresh chilis). Obviously you wouldn't want something super sweet on your pasta so leave out the sugar, but they've definitely got the start of a decent idea there.

Pumpkin ravioli is already a thing, so just turn one inside out. Bam, pasta in a pumpkin sauce.

I make vegan pumpkin sauce macaroni and cheese. It’s good but it needs a bit of chili to cut through the sweetness and a ton of nutritional yeast for the umami. Otherwise it would taste like pasta with jelly I guess.

A variety of produce related developments never really took hold till the 80s or some places maybe the 90s: transport resilient cultivars, convincing the 3rd world to willingly turn themselves back to plantations, irrigating California to the point of affordability, hooking that all up to the global supply chain etc. Your broccoli came from a garden or a farmers market for a few weeks a year but really you're eating it out of a can or maybe a frozen bag if you're fortunate.

I will never stop being grateful that I can get a giant head of fresh broccoli all year round for 99c. That's not per lb/kg; my big ol broccoli costs that much per unit.
Unless I want to buy a "broccoli crown", then it costs an extra 50% for someone to cut off the stem for me. It costs a lot more and I get less broccoli, its the perfect scam.

Edit: frozen peas are usually better than fresh, frozen Brussels sprouts, broccoli, carrots... pretty much everything else, is extremely nasty.
