For And About Women PAGE THREE THE CHOWAN HERALD, EDENTON. DECEMBER 26. 1968. The Herald Kitchen Put us down as a brown bagger. More and more people are joining the throng. There are many reasons why the crowd grows. Many, like the Huskinses have such limited time tor lunch that they cannot go home or wait to be served. Some just like home cook ed food. Some find they have more variety less ex pensively by carrying their lunch to work or school. With a little advance planning, a carried lunch can be nutritionally well balanced, colorful and tas ty. Snack meals should be kept in a cool place be cause cooked foods are perishable. If a refrigera tor or a cooler is not available, sandwiches and cooked meats can be froz en before packing the lunch. As the frozen food thaws, it will keep vege table relishes and fresh fruits refreshingly cool. Our grandson, entering the second grade this year in a Georgia preparatory school, carries his lunch. His mother prepares it the night before and slips it in the refrigerator. She does it to save early morn ing time but it also helps to prevent spoilage. Only the thermos of milk is add. ed just as the car-pool arrives. Here are some sugges tions, some of which we have tried: A sesame seed sand wich bun filled with slices of bologna layered with slices of sharp cheese makes a hearty sandwich. Several slivers of dill pickles add a tangy touch to the sandwich. Fall grapes, white or red, are fine finger fruits for the carried lunch. Fried chibken is especi- I y & tv may every moment OF CHRISTMAS RING WITH GOOD CHEER FOR YOU. Sanitary Dry Cleaners May every hour of Christmastide ViM bring increasing happiness irs* Er to your fireside. Good wishes to all and a sincere thanks for all past courtesies. Edenton Office Supply “COMPLETE OFFICE OUTFITTERS” By MILDRED HUSKINS ally packable. Brown bread sandwiches with a cream cheese and chopped nut filling plus a crisp apple or pear are a good combination with the chicken. Cold roast pork is a fav orite with us. Slice it thin and arrange on rye bread. Mustard, mayon naise or Thousand Island Dressing spread on the bread keeps it moist and compliments the lean roast pork. A small container of apple-cole slaw adds crispness to the luncheon menu. A banana and one or two crisp sugar cookies are the dessert for this meal. Well, there is always Sego or Metrecal, you know! It’s a sure bet that you can’t eat just one peanut! Indeed, peanuts are hab it-forming, but it’s the kind of habit that food ex perts praise, for peanuts have good nutritional value. The protein in six tablespoons of peanut but ter will equal a three ounce serving of cooked boneless meat. The greatest single use for peanuts continues to be in peanut butter which Americans eat at over half a billion pounds a year. Here is a tasty recipe which features peanut but ter and these cookies would also fit into the lunch bag. Toffee Squares 1/3 cup butter or mar garine. Vt cup cream style pea nut butter. 1 lb. marshmallows. 1 tablespoon milk. 4 cups pr e -sweetened puffed oat or wheat ce real. Combine butter or mar garine, peanut butter, marshmallows and milk in heavy saucepan. Place over low heat and stir constantly until all ingre dients are melted and smooth. Add cereal and stir until all cereal is coated with mixture. Re move from heat and turn into two greased oblong pans (11x7x2 inches). Press into even layer. Cooky Topping 2 pkgs. (6 oz.) Semi sweet chocolate pieces. 1 tablespoon shortening. % cup salted peanuts, chopped. % cup pre - sweetened puffed oats and wheat ce real. Melt chocolate bits and shortening in top of double boiler. Spread half of chocolate over each pan of cookies and sprinkle tops with chopped peanuts and cereal. Cool. Cut into bars or squares. Makes about 96 squares. Peanuts can go into or onto many foods to add flavor and crunch. Here are a few suggestions: Sprinkle chopped peanuts and cinnamon - sugar over hot oatmeal or any cook ed cereal; stir a few chop ped peanuts into waffle or pancake batter before bak ing, or heat the peanuts with maple-flavor syrup to serve with pancakes, waffles or French toast; substitute whole peanuts for croutons in your favor ite green salad, or toss into cole slaw; heat whole or chopped peanuts with butter or margarine and a bit of lemon juice to spoon over fish fillets or over broccoli, asparagus or Brussels sprouts; scoop vanilla, chocolate, coffee or banana ice cream into balls; roll in finely chop ped peanuts and freeze firm. Serve with choco late or fruit sundae sauce. We can report on Peg Bracken’s Go Go Cake. It will go down in our book with rave notices. The recipe, which we gave you last week calls for three fourths cup sherry, but, not having sherry on hand we dumped in the same amount of rum and the batter was just like a real thick egg nog and tasted better. The next time we bake this easy cake we’ll do it according to the recipe and bake it in a smaller than 10-inch tube pan. Our nine-inch bundt pan would have been just about right. We served the sample to the coffee drinkers at the office yes terday and it disappeared immediately. That’s a pretty good sign.
