Holiday foods can be nutritious
Old Fashioned Burgoo
Souper Suppers
When that bone-chilling late win­
ter wind is w histling outside and
frost is in the air, few dinner meals
give as much sustenance to the body
and spirit as a large, steaming bowl
of good soup. Essence food editor,
Venezuela Newborn, suggests using
leftovers (vegetables and meat) to
prepare one o f her own m ou th ­
watering soup dishes your family will
long remember:
rabbit are tender enough to remove
meat from bone. When chicken and
rabbit are cool enough to handle
w ith fingers, remove meat from
bones and return meat to pot. Bring
to boil again. Add tomatoes, corn,
carrots, onions and cabbage. Simmer
fo r 2 hours. Add rem aining
vegetables and seasoning. Cook for
another hour until all vegetables are
done. Add brandy. Burgoo is self­
thickening. Serve with onion spoon
bread. Serves 12.

and a typing teacher at Portland
Community College.
"People have to be very confused
about nutrition these days with all
the conflicting inform ation coming
out in the papers," she said. " I f I am
confused then I am sure other people
must be. 1 hope the workshop can
clear up some o f the inform ation."
M rs. Bales said she "c o o k s
healthier, but not health foods."
I've always cooked from scratch
and never used mixes so these
holiday foods are really nothing very
different for us,” she said.
During the holidays she entertains
fa m ily and friends w ith b uffets,
cocktails parties and a number o f
dinner parties at the Bate’ s Hillsboro
farm which includes an apple o r­
chard, berry garden and vegetable
garden.
Here are some o f Mrs. Bates
recipes which she w ill share in her
holiday entertaining workshop:
H olida y foods can be low in
calories, high in nurtrition and high
in elegant taste in the opinion ot
Susan Bates, a Portland Community
College workshop teacher.
Some o f Mrs. Bates suggestions
include:
-Substitute neufchatel cheese for
cream cheese for lower fat and lower
calorie cooking.
-Substitute yogurt for recipes which
call for sour cream.
-Use tofu-a custard-like soy bean
product-instead o f either cream or
sour cream fo r a lo w -fa t, high
protein dish.
-Try falafel, a middle eastern flour
made o f dried garbanzo beans, in­
stead o f meat for a crunchy low-fat
meatball dish.
“ The typical holiday foods have
lots o f butter and cream and calories,
but I think my recipes are every bit as
flavorful,” Mrs. Bates said. “ They
are not part o f the skim milk syn­
drome, but very full and tasty so you
aren't aware o f the low calories at
the time.”
Mrs. Bates tries out recipes on her
15-year old son. He is a tan ot her
falafel meatballs. “ Anything my 15-
year old loves I just know others
would like,” Mrs. Bates said.
Her recipes fo r holiday enter­
taining, which she w ill distribute
during the workshop, include the
falafel meatballs, strawberry tofu
cheesecake, curry-tuna-tofu dip, ap­
ple fruitcake, Chicken Italian and
peanut sticks,
Mrs. Bates said she has collected
recipes for years which she believes
will help her family eat better.
“ None of us is overweight and we
least out very well on low
cholesterol," Mrs. Bates said.
She is a home economist and sub­
stitute teacher in Beaverton School
District. Mrs. Bates is also a master’ s
degree candiate in business education
