Oh 1973, please be kind to me!

After finding a box of unopened McCall's Great American Recipe Card Collection cards, for the princely sum of $15 (they are selling for just under $500 on Etsy and they are the USED ones!),  I have committed to cooking and taste testing one recipe a week on this channel.  

Let's find out how cuisine from the USA in 1973 looks and tastes.

Today our dish - Chicken & Shrimp Casserole (in Australia we say prawns not shrimp) - doesn't look too scary altho there is a process that I am skipping because it's nothing short of murder!  Also I couldn't find an uncooked version of the ingredient and I feel the process is to cook them.  I believe I'm about to cook rubber.  Please join me!

Not gonna lie, just seeing a few of the other cards in the box is scary enough but to actually cook and eat it?  Why am I doing this?  Why the hell not?  I can always palm it off to a pig owner in the neighbourhood. They will literally eat anything.   The pig, not the neighbour!

I am absolutely terrified about this adventure.  Please join me if only to hold my hand along the way!

Also at the end of the live we will do a lucky dip and draw the next card of what I'll be making next.  Send out positive vibes it does not involve jelly/jello!
