Portland Observer, October 26, 1963 Page 7 Beefy pasta pleases Pasta and beef make a partner ship that almost no one can resist— certainly not cooks and least o f all children, both o f whom Uke the combination for different reasons. It's easy to turn a moderate amount o f beef into four servings, and that's one important reason for cooks to rely on this standby. It's al so fairly quick to create a one-dish entree on top o f the range with m ini mal expenditure o f energy. E ffo rt less meals that don't overheat the cook or the kitchen are a breeze. New variations on the macaroni and beef theme are ever wafting in from the kitchen. Here are three that will disappear at any dinner table. Rotini and Meatballs features spi ral-shaped macaroni called rotini. The ground beef is shaped into meatballs and browned with onion, basil and garlic. Canned condensed Cheddar cheese soup, canned toma- tes, kidney beans and cooked rotini are added to the saucepan and sim mered for 10 minutes. Spinach gives Ground Beef Flor entine its name and the macaroni in this single-skillet meal is elbow shaped. Canned condensed tomato soup provides the sauce that has shredded Cheddar cheese and cooked leaf spinach stirred into it. Beefy Zucchini Mac capitalizes on the convenience o f canned chunky soup and the versatility of season ings to make a tempting dish with an Italian accent in a flash. The recipes are proof again that pasta and beef are a durable and de licious pair. 1 cup zucchini squash cut in thin •trip* I «mall dove garlic, minced W-teaspoon basil leaves, crushed I tablespoon cornstarch Parsley In 2 quart saucepan, combine soup, tomatoes, macaroni, squash, garlic, basil and cornstarch.
