Baloney & Potato Dinner

This recipe comes from my Grandma M. (Doris). My Mom remembers this being served for many a meal. Enough was made for all eight children plus the two parents.

Baloney & Potato Dinner

Chinese Casserole

This recipe is from Todd's Grandma A. (Pauline). It is now a favourite in our family as well.

Chinese Casserole

1 1/2 lbs hamburg

1 onion

1 lg can cream chicken soup

1 can mushrooms (liquid included)

1 cup water

1 cup celery

1/2 cup minute rice

3 tbsp soy sauce

1 tin bean sprouts (drained)

1 - 7 oz tin Chinese noodles (or use broken up pieces of spaghetti)

Fry hamburg and onions. Add rest except noodles. Put 3/4 can of noodles in large casserole or 2 small ones. Then put in ingredients and top with rest of noodles. Bake 350 degrees for 3/4 hour. "I used just plain rice and macaroni or spaghetti."

Baked Beans

This recipe comes from my Grandma M. (Doris). This is actually my Mom's recollection of the recipe as Grandma didn't have it written down (that we know of). Grandma used to make baked beans quite often.

Baked Beans

Soak 2 lbs beans in water overnight or simmer in water for 1 1/2 hours on stove. Drain water and rinse beans to eliminate excess gas in water. Cover beans with fresh water and add:

1/2 cup ketchup

1/2 cup brown sugar

1 tsp salt

1 tsp pepper

1/4 cup molasses

1/2 lb shortening

chopped onion (optional)

1 can whole tomatoes (optional)

Bake uncovered in oven at 325-350 deg f. for most of day. Beans will turn a darker brown and be rather saucy in appearance. Add more water if you notice beans getting dry.
