OPPORTUNITIES
A SUMMER MEAT COURSE
For the meat course of a quickly
nerved sumer dinner, try jellied meat
loaf prepared from the tinned fish,
chicken or tongue that should be on
every pantry shelf. The foundation
of the loaf is lemon-flavored gelatin,
with slices of hard-boiled egg or green
peas used alternately with the layers
of meat or fish. Served with mayon-
naise and rice or potato patties fried
crisp and brown in buter or margarine,
this makes a very satisfying meal.
