; is given them. Even those families who don't observe food restrictions
" during these springtime weeks, can enjoy meatless days. .'
! Typical of the interesting dishes for. Lent are
pictured on this page. For instance the how-to-make
picture at the- left below shows one of the
'best combinations, tuna and potatoes in casserole,
T with a crisp topping oLprepared eereaL ' ''
.:;'-v 'The other, dish is a .combination that makes a
main dish of hard-cooked eggs.' Though one step
more complicated than the tuna-potatb recipe, 'the
I curried eggs have a fine, flavor and may come in
I ' very handy as a company dish..- v
I With approved Americanized- accompaniments,
I peanuts, coconut and relish, the dish will pass nice
j ly for a foreign specialty. - -

cheese, fish and 'dairy products. '
