I don't do it often, but pasta with a cream of mushroom or clam chowder soup.
Maybe not too weird, but that's probably as weird as it gets.

My so called broccoli-potato-gratin with pork neck includes quite an amount of cream, salt, bouillion cubes and cheese. My wife doesn't know and it will stay that way.
Microwaved pepperoni chips.
Put pepperoni on a plate with some paper towels, microwave for one minute. The apartment will smell either heavenly or sickening for the next hour, depending on how much you like pepperoni.
Works with any sliced sausage really
Liver and ground beef in a skillet.
Easy post workout meal, easy to clean, only minutes to cook.
Nobody I know would eat liver
Not super common but commen enough and just for a snack, but I like using tortillas if there's no bread in my apartment. I use them for things like peanut butter and mayonnaise wraps and peanut butter and butter wraps.
I also sometimes use tortillas for leftovers in general, depending on the leftovers from the night before. Last time there was leftover homemade mac and cheese and catfish, I heated them and had that wrapped in a plain tortilla with nothing else for breakfast.
On the area of Mexico that I grew up in, every morning (or every other morning) you would buy fresh corn tortillas for the family. Weโd make a taco out of anything.
There is a macaroni salad (with lettuce, peas, carrots, etc.) served at weddings and special events people sometimes pair it with mole sauce and add it to a taco (tortilla) - the main dish is mole with chicken and rice and beans, but people in my region would not think of a Mac and cheese taco as too strange.
My mom also used to make a canned tuna mix (mayo, tomato, onion, lime, salt and pepper) that we would pair with a tortilla and it slaps. Iโve feed this to people from the US and they came back for a second and third taco.
We also would pair a rolled up tortilla with soups (chicken, beef, fish) and used it to push the veggies and meat into a spoon while taking a bite of the part that got souped up.
Corn goes surprisingly well with both sweet/savory (mole) and salty (meats, etc). Iโve never thought of pairing it with PB, but I can see how it might work. If you were referring to flour tortillas, those tend to have a slightly sweet profile, so it seems it could work.
...you're a bad person and you should feel bad, but i used to like tuna casserole when i was growing up which i think is like blue-box macaroni and cheese, canned tuna, cream of mushroom soup, frozen peas, and crushed ruffles baked together...
...maybe?..i don't think i've eaten it since the seventies since my stepfather hated it, so i might not quite be remembering it correctly...
Take a sweet bun that has a curd filling, cut it in half like a burger bun. Spread cream cheese on both sides. Add ham, cucumber, salad leaf. Serve with tarkhuna. This recipe might doxx me to my friends, because I always say to try it but nobody ever does.
Cream of wheat but then you put a gloop of fruit yoghurt on top. Delicious probiotic fruit gruel.
2nd place goes to microwaved potato
Do you eat it with or without the microwave?
Inside the microwave.
I blend 2 eggs with a banana, and I fry it as if it's a pancake, with butter. It doesn't hold together, so it keeps coming out as if it's weird scrambled eggs. But it's delicious, the healthiest kind of pancake (with a drop of raw honey afterwards).
Mine would probably be my ghetto breakfast sandwiches. I usually throw a little shredded cheese, diced onion, and hot peppers into a coffee mug and crack and egg into it and then scramble it. Microwave that for a min while i toast an English muffin or bagel. Then put it together with maybe a thin slice of ham. Excellent breakfast sandwich. People think I'm nuts for making the eggs in a microwave, but it works well, has an easy cleanup, and is super quick in the mornings before work.
It's bending the rules, since it's a camping meal, but I have made it at home, too, since it makes a great depression meal. I got it from backpackers, who I'm pretty sure got it from prison inmates:
The Ramen Bomb.
Cook a crushed up packet of instant ramen noodles, maybe with a little more water than usual. Add like half a packet of instant mashed potatoes. You can also add a protein, like... chopped up Spam. Maybe some hot sauce or other fixings if you're feeling fancy.
I hated how much I enjoyed it. Granted, that was when I was really tired and hungry, but that hit the spot.
Also, I've heard meals like the ones in this thread affectionately referred to as "glop," by a fellow glop-enjoyer.
Your dish is called a jacket potato if I understand you right. What I like to do is boil rice then mix it with peanut butter and sriracha and just eat that like it is.
Another delicious hit - chocolate sandwiches!
Two slices of white bread, fill sandwich generously with hot chocolate mix. Deliciously dry and chocolatey.
Bun, brat, mustard, sourkraut. If there is a pack of malt vinegar in the drawer, that too.
