SUGGESTIONS FOR TASTY
LENTEN SEASON DISHES

As the Lenten season approaches
its end, the average housewife finds
the food problem becoming more
acute day by day. BY this she has
used, and perhaps repeated, the
meatless dishes which appeal to
her family.
Baked salmon pie is an unusual
dish which should be well received
Boil four medium sized potatoes
and then mash them with little
milk and Butter. Make a smooth
thick sauce of two tablespoons
each Of butter and flour, one and
one quarter cupfuls milk, salt and
pepper TO taste. Drain can of
salmon, flake the fish with a fork,
add little salt and paprika and
mix with the sauce. Butter a deep
euamcled ware pie plate and line
with mashed potatoes. Pour in the
crcamed salmon, cover with mashed
potatoes and brush with melted
butter Bake in quick oven un-
til nicely Drowned and seryey i'm
mcdiately from the dish III which
is is baked.
A delicious mold Of spinach,
which, IS so healthful, is made from
two pounds Of spinach, washed
thoroughly, cooked and chopped.
Drain off all the water, add TWO
tablcspoonsful butter and season
! ing, one half cupful milk or cream
and four c-- whites beaten 10 a
! stiff broth. Place in buttcrcd
enamclcd ware bowl, which IS I'M
! lpcryious TO ycgetagle acids, and
put in a pan of hot water in the
oven. Cook in a slow oven for
/ about - minutes. This may be
served with cream sauce in which
the yolks Of the eggs can be used,
or with brown butter, G&rnish with
sliced hand boiled eggs.
There are many different WAYS
preparing potatoes, too. There IS
no reason for overriding the three
ever popular and overworked kinds
mashed boiled and baked.
Scalloped potatoes look nice and
taste better, and 20 especially
we'll with Mushroom or any other
kind Of omclct.
Peel one quart Of raw potatoes
and slice into quarter inch pieces
| Arrange them in layers in a but
tered baking dish Sprinkle cacl
laver with flour (four tablespoons
