28—lancaiter Farming, Saturday. Feb. 2. 1974 Recipe Exchange . .. Home on the Ono of America's favorite foods, the hamburg, is in creasing in popularity when used in its raw form as ground beef. Ground beef, or hamburg, is perhaps the most versatile and economical of all meats. It is quick and easy to prepare, and can be made in a number of ways. You can bake, broil, fry, barbecue and brown it for a variety of recipes. It is used for soups, stews, meat loafs, meat pies, casseroles, “Poor Man’s Steak”, in spaghetti sauce, and alas, our well-known hamburgers and cheese burgers. Now available in super markets are vegetable protein mixes. When added to your meat with water, it stretches meat (and food dollars) from one pound to one and one-half pounds.
