One Dish Meals.
A one-dish meal contains the neces-
sary food for a meal, with the excep-
ton of salad and dessert; that Is, 1t
| contains meat, cheese or a vegetable
rich in protein, combined with starchy
| food, such as potatoes, macaroni or rice.
And lastly, there should be various
kinds of vegetables. A one-dish meal
may take the form of stew, caSSe-
role dish, a meat pie or a pot roast.
The best method is to use inexpensive
cuts of meat in such dishes. The long
cooking makes the meat tender, and
when cooked with vegetables 1t really
takes on a delicious flavor. All OF the
food is cooked in one dish, and when
! top-stove cooking is used only one
burner is needed, which saves gas and
heat. Time and energy are also saved
in another way by serving one-dish
meals, as there are fewer pots and pans
to wash.
A beef or lamb stew with egg noodles
is excellent. Spanish stew Is also good.
1t is made from chopped beef and pota-
toes, with garlic, onion and green pep
pers for seasoning. Stuffed rolled flank
baked in a casserole with carrots,
onions and beets is delicious. Stuff

tions in one-dish meals. Baked rice
