The Chopping Block

Wouldn't you like to have
dinner on the table without
fuss, using just one pan?
Here we have three such
dishes. The first two,
Oriental Skillet Supper and
30-minute Meatless
Medley, have the help of
other good convenience
foods. The third, Egg Skillet
Supper, needs a little more
hand work, like chopping
onions and shredding car-
rots and zucchini. But even
that doesn't need a lot of
time or skill. And none of
these dishes has the look or
taste of a prepackaged or
take-out dinner. They have
all the appeal of a home-
cooked meal.
The Meatless Medley can
be varied using a different
flavor of condensed cream
soup. Instead of peas, you
might use frozen chopped
broccoli, corn or mixed veg-
etables. You can top the
eggs with any mclty cheese
you have in thc refrigerator.
Thus you can serve the
basic dish many times,
using your own ideas and
ingenuity.
