i t ’s back to basics and good, o ld -fa s h io n „,
cooking when you want to help the food
budget. Pastas of all varieties can be aug­
mented with cheeses and vegetable sauces to
create hot and hearty main dishes to ward off the
chill of winter. Creamy vegetable soups are tasty
and nourishing, especially when teamed with fra­
grant, homemade bread. Your family can truly feel as
though they’re feasting royally.
__________
Although some convenience foods are used in the preparation of meals
such as these, they are essentially "cooking from scratch,” which is a
money saver today. The lasagna is meatless but cheese-rich and pizza-
sauced. It comes complete with a seasonal vegetable, broccoli, thus pro­
viding an entree that’s as handsome as it’s good to eat. Lettuce salad with
sliced cucumbers and radishes offers a zesty accompaniment with its
sour cream dressing. Serve with chilled milk, French bread and creamy
butter, then top off the meal with style: Chocolate-Vanilla-Orange Parfaits.
Cheese, milk, vegetables and beef broth are the mainstays for an eco­
nomical but easy soup that wards off the chill of both weather and rising
prices Serve homemade, whole-grain bread to add a touch of nostalgia.
Dessert is right in keeping—seasonal apples crowned with yogurt.
