Avoid the Sunday dinner rut

for four weeks!

I’ve found myself in the
“Sunday Dinner’? rut —
although the roast changes
from pork to beef to lamb
and back again, the rest of

the meal is drearily
predictable.

budget
beaters

by Barbara
McCreadie

One day last week | got a
bright idea — I picked up a
cookbook from my collection
and chose six recipes I’ve
never tried and planned a tru-
ly unusual Sunday dinner. To
make sure that |} wouldn't
chicken-oult (pun uninten-
tional) | invited a couple of
guests and told them what to

NE of the toughest jobs for any cook is to
keep out of a rut — you’ll know you’re in
One when you serve meatloaf every Tuesday

expect.
Since | write ‘‘Budget
Beaters’’ every Sunday morn-

ing and that dinner is partly
prepared and due to be serv-
ed at 6:30 tonight, I'll put a
p.s. at the end of today’s col-
umn and let you know how
my experiment turned out.
Next week, I'll include the
recipes that were popular —
tf any!

Now, let’s have a look at
this week’s good buys:

Vil be buying pork at
Stong’s this week. Loin
chops are $1.49 a pound,
mimmum 10 chops. Since
these are previously frozen,
they must be cooked before
you can freeze them again. 1
find that breaded, grilled
chops re-heat in about 20
Minutes on a cookie sheet in
the oven. Very handy for
quick meals. The loin back
ribs are $1.49 too — cut them
into serving pteces and steam
them im the oven, covered,
for an hour at 300°F. Re-heat
topped with your favorite
BBQ sauce.

Potatoes, 5 pounds for 79¢
at Super Valu are an excellent
buy this week. Try this:
