Potatoes Long Have
Been Pets on Menus
Potatoes have been pets on
menus since long before the
Irish came to our shores. But
patience can be tried by too
many potatoes served too many
times in the same old way. So
bow out the boiled and mashed
and try this Irish trick called
Potato O'Brien.
3 cups diced cooked potatoes
2 tablespoons minced pimientos
2 tablespoons minced green pep
per 2 tablespoons minced onion
3 tablespoons melted fat
Salt and pepper
Select four or five medium
size, uniform potatoes; scrub,
wash, rinse, and pare before or
after cooking. Cover whole po
tatoes with boiling salted water
and cook, covered 25 to 40 min
utes or until just tender. Drain.
Peel if boiled with jackets and
place uncovered in warm place
to dry out. Cut in half inch
cubes. Combine all ingredients
and add to fat in heavy frying
pan; sprinkle with salt and pep
per and saute until delicately
browned, stirring occasionally.
Avocadoes Make Fine
Salads for Week End
There's a lot of green, pear
shaped fruit on the market now
avocados are a fine seasonal
fruit just asking to be used in
week end salads.
Slices of avocado make a good
showing of green color when ar
ranged in overlapping rows; or
alternate avocado slices and
grapefruit halves on a bed of
shredded lettuce.
Avocado half-shells filled with
green pickle relish go well with
macaroni dishes and most cas
seroles. Or serve the peeled
halved fruit upside down to
show off its green color and
perhaps slip a bit of mixed fruit
or chicken or tuna salad under
the seed cup. Or simply offer
avocado halves in the shell with
salt and lemon or pass a tart
French dressing.
Green Fruit Punch
Here's a fine refreshing, sat
isfying economical drink to put
punch in the party. Combine
one cup sugar and one cup water
and boil five minutes. Cool and
add juice of six oranges, juice of
six lemons; chill. Just before
serving add green vegetable
coloring to desired tone. Add
one quart chilled ginger ale.
Makes about two quarts; 12 or
so servings.
Spring Tonic Rarebit

or supper dish packed with vita
mins and minerals; tasty and at
tractive. An extra special fam
ily meal or a party specialty cer
