and chop it up in my food
processor. Combine the
chicken with three cups of
chicken broth and simmer
until fully cooked. Add two
cans creamed corn.

If you don’t mind the extra
calories you can thicken the
soup to your liking with a bit
of cornstarch dissolved in
cold water. Garnish with
chopped green onion and
serve with hot rolls and a
green salad. If you add some
hard cooked eggs or a tin of
tuna to the salad, you’ve got
a quick nutritious summer

Fresh peaches at 59¢ a

The new crop of local
green onions and radishes is
in, despite the rain. At four
bunches for $1 they’re an ex-
cellent buy at Buy Low.
Regular quality ground beef
at 98¢ a pound, also at Buy
Low, is an inexpensive
choice. | find that this grade
is better for pan frying than
barbecueing too many
flare-ups. It’s also useful for
casseroles where you c
cook and drain the meat first.

My daughters make Egg
McMuffins as a breakfast or

wards is featuring one of the
main ingredients sliced,

essential — singles cheese
slices — are also featured at
$3.37 for the 500 gm.

Kraft Parkay margarine is
a good buy at Woodwards

three pound package.

the steaks with garlic powder
and forget about them till the
coals are ready. My family
prefers stuffed baked
potatoes to go along.

These can be done early in
the day, foil-wrapped and
reheated on the BBQ. Bake
as many potatoes as you'll
need. Cut a slice off the top
(save the slices, top with
cheese and put them back in
the oven till the cheese melts.
You, the cook, are allowed to
have them for lunch.) Scoop
out the potato centers and
mash with sour cream. Add
crisp bacon bits, chopped
green onion, salt and pepper,
and top with grated cheddar.

Even though we make
most of our cakes from
scratch, it’s handy to have a
cake mix or two on hand for
lazy days. Duncan Hines, all
varieties, are on special at
$1.42 at Super Valu. We use
the white cake mix for an
ltalian-s@Je dessert. Bake the
cake in two round layers.
Cool and place side by side
On a serving tray.

Carefully mark a circle one
and a half inches from the
edge. Cut away the inside of
the cakes leaving this border,
to within aninch of ‘the bot-
tom crust. This forms a
‘*bowl”’? which you’ll fill with
vanilla custard. Arrange
sweetened fresh fruit ( or can-
ned, if you must) on the
border. Top the custard with
whipped cream. Looks fan-
cy, tastes great and is easy to
make.

Prepare for those hot sum-
mer days now, while it’s cool
enough to spend a few hours
in the kitchen. Safeway is
featuring lean ground beef at
$1.69 a pound, providing you
buy in 10 pound or larger
lots.

One advantage of bulk
cooking is that you’ve got
just one set of utensils to
wash! Get busy — make up
some cocktail meat balls, a
meat loaf, some spaghetti
saucé and a couple of
casseroles. If all else fails,
form some burger patties and
freeze them on a cookie sheet
before bagging. School will
soon be out and you’ll be
glad you can grab a patty or
two for your kids at
lunchtime.

Mayfare weiners at 89¢ a
pound are a wise buy at
Safeway. During summer
vacation it seems like half the
kids in town are at our house
and our girls are running a
short-order kitchen. Plenty
of hot dogs fills the bill fairly
cheaply.

Money-saving chicken for oven or BBQ

I’M NOT betting on barbecue weather this week
but, just in case, the whole frying chickens at $1.05
a pound at Stong’s are an excellent buy. If it rains
you can always pop them whole into the oven or
disjoint them for pan or oven fried chicken.
