Plentiful Cheese and Chicken Go Into This Swiss Souffle The practical Swiss were first to think of combining chicken and cheese for extra flavor and nutritional value.

An ideal way to use up left over chicken or turkey or to utilize canned chicken. While souffle is baking, prepare a crisp tossed salad and a green vegetable, perhaps broccoli with lemon, butter and sliced almonds for topping. 4 tablespoons butter . 4 tablespoons flour 1 teaspoon salt ?4 teaspoon pepper 1V& cups milk 4 eggs, separated - 1 cup shredded Swiss cheese 2 cups cooked chicken or tur key, finely chopped Melt butter in top of double boiler, add flour, salt and pep per and stir until smoothly blended.

Six serv ings., Cheese-Egg Cookery Cheese and eggs make up many substantial main dishes; souffles, fondues, rarebits, baked eggs and cheese. We want to remind you that low, slow heat is absolutely essential when blending eggs and cheese. Both toughen at too high a tempera ture. That is why many top-of-the-stove dishes are cooked in a double boiler and cheese dishes in the oven either are cooked sitting in a pan of water or the oven set at low to moderate. Cheese Cut-Up It is essential to get cheese into small pieces before you com bine it with other ingredients in most cooked dishes. Grate it, slice it, cube it or run it through a sieve. That way the cheese cooks more quickly, can be dis tributed evenly throughout. 4 "... Thrifty Milk Buying To skimp on milk in order to cut 1 family food costs is poor economy.

Consider wise use of the less expensive forms of milk; canned evaporated milk which has nutritive values similar to fresh whole milk and often may be used the same way. Other less expensive products are skim milk, buttermilk and nonfat dry milk. These are lower in calories and in vitamin A than whole milk but are high in protein, minerals and ribo flavin.
