Money-Saving Main Dishes

Author: Department Us Department of Agricultur

The main dish is especially important in meal planning. It is the hub around which the rest of the meal is built, and often it carries a large proportion of the cost of the meal. Usually the main dish is the main source of protein - so essential to building and repairing body tissues.

In this book are recipes and suggestions for about 150 main dishes - easy to make, hearty, and economical. Each gives four liberal servings.

Besides tasting good and satisfying the appetite, these main dishes in general furnish about a sixth of the day's needs for protein. He remainder of the protein will come from milk used as a beverage, from cereals and bread, and from other foods eaten as part of the dinner and at the other meals of the day.
