S-t-r-e-t-c-h ground beef
When the food budget is scraping
bottom or there isn’t much time to
prepare a meal, it ’s ground beef to
the rescue every time.
Econom y-m inded cooks w ill be
pleased to know that while most
food item s have risen in price,
ground beef costs have rem ained
stable.
As little as o n e -h a lf pound o f
ground beef can save a cook’s repu­
tation when four servings o f a hur­
ry -u p entree are needed. G round
beef is rem arkably stretchable and
combines well with most pantry sta­
ples. In p a rtic u la r, canned con ­
densed soups help to stretch ground
beef with style.
Condensed soup makes com pli­
cated recipes a possibility in minutes
by providing a sauce or a blending
o f flavors that would take an extra
hour or (wo o f preparation. Its de­
p en d a b ility assures success every
time, which is the kind o f insurance
any cook appreciates.
As an exam ple o f what can be
done with ground beef and canned
condensed soup, try Carne De Vaca
Chili. It takes only about IS minutes
to make and yields four servings o f
a skillet dish that is good and
hearty. T o ground beef browned
with onion are added chili beef soup,
cooked elbow macaroni, canned to­
matoes and chili powder. The com­
bination is spicily hot and satisfy­
ing.
F or a p atio lunch o r d in n e r,
here's a recipe that serves six— hot
Beefy Barbecue Buns. In this quick
and easy skillet m eal, the ground
beef is browned w ith onion and
green pepper. Condensed bean with
bacon soup, barbecue sauce and
brown sugar contribute to the entic­
ing aroma o f the western soup-burg­
ers served on hamburger buns.
Oround beef stretchers made with
soup are easy to create with w hat’s
on hand and can easily be adapted
to individual tastes and preferences.

wins a hand at your next party
When you entertain at your next
card party— Bridge, Poker, Pinoch­
le or whatever— nothing scores high
with the players like a super dessert.
Such could be our D o ub le Deluxe
Chocolate Cake, made with an old
pantry shelf favorite, cocoa. Cocoa
is chocolate in its most concentrated
fo rm , ready to measure and m ix,
right from the can. N o messy pre­
m elting necessary and, therefore,
little risk o f lumpiness. It gives the
cake a smoother batter, better tex­
ture and a richer, more chocolatey
flavor. Since over 4 /3 o f the cocoa
b u tte r is rem oved, i t ’ s also much
lower in fat— lower in calories, too.
COcoa makes desserts that only taste
sinful! Get a winning hand at your
next card party with a super dessert.
Make it a Double Deluxe Chocolate
Cake. Enjoy!
