Vegetable Dinner

Vegetable meals are becoming in
creasingly popular. Perhaps partly due
to the campaign for "vegetarianism"
being carried by large chain Of we'll
known restaurants, perhaps because Of
the change being brought about in o,r
national dietary because OF the cat
ore-regetables drive instituted in var
time days-perhaps just because We
have come TO ike vegetables more.
Whatever the cause, vegetable meals
have certainly become an established
part Of our dietary and are featured on
the menus Of even the smallest restau-
rants.
If vegetable meal is to supply all
the food requirements care must De
taken in its selcctiOn-and how often
can We bear witness that this Is not
always done
The vegetables must be selected first
with knowledge Of their food value.
Then they must De prepared 80 a. to
present a satisfying meal. Remember
that most vegetables are at least IS per
cent water and that unless enough bulk
foods arc supplied your family will soon
complain Of being hungry again before
the next meal time comes around. NV

PLANNING WEEKS FOOD

In planning food for the week after
the menus have been decided upon it
is usually good plan TO check up on
the amount and kinds of supplies re-
CURED. Whenever possible. it is usually
a little more economical TO buy staple
supplies Ii quantities enough to last
at least week-that is such things
as coffee. butter, sugar. cereals. pota-
toes. etc, will keep well and save a con-
siderable amount of time that might
othei wise have to be spent in marketing
during the week. 1t is. of course. al
most always necessary 10 buy green
vegetables and meats at the time that
they are TO be used.
For instance. in planning the menus
the weekly market list should include
bacon. cornmeal. potatoes. -four, coffee,
chocolate, cereal. eggs, macaroni. gela-
tin. apples and rice.

for the toasted sandwiches for SUNDAYS
supper These may be made either the
regulation double sandwiches or the
open-faced type The latter Is some
times more popular. especially for cold
weather as It can be served hotter than
the double sandwich. To make them,
crate or cut the cheese into small pieces.
