sorrow she feels.

Last year during the Lenten
Season we printed a recipe for
stuffed eggplant that must have
been real tasty TO some of you,
judging from the requests for re-
peating II here and now.
Cut an egg plant in half length
wise and scoop out the center
leaving just enough on the skin
10 make two followed shells, Cut
the meat Of the plant into cubes
and cook In lightly sailed water
until tender and drain.
Then In two teaspoons olive oil,
lightly brown one medium onion
chopped. one Glove garlic grated,
one stalk celery chopped. and one
four ounce can mushrooms chop
ped, or same quantity fresh ones.
When all this mixture has cool
I'd, combine with three slices
stale bread crumhled. one egg
beaten, season with sage, major
am, saN and pepper, and fin the
egg plant shells. Bake in moder-
ate oven until Drowned on top.
It's best when setting the shells
in the pyreg pie plate to put a
wee bit of water into the bottom
Of The plate.
For after Lenten meals. the
olive oil nav be substituted BY
chicken fat or four slices Of ha.
con chopped.
