v ‘iy vires g ER Stir crazy Dallas Post/ C.M. denmon Consumers are generally con- cerned about getting the best for their grocery dollar while at the same time assuring healthy food selections for themselves and their families. The American Heart Asso- ciation (AHA) offers some hints to help get the most for your food dollar. -Use moderate sized portions of fish, poultry or lean meat. AHA’s dietary guidelines recommend 5 to 7 oz. per person daily from this food group, and AHA suggests fish and poultry be eaten more frequently than red meat. -Frozen fish is often less expen- sive than fresh fish. -Make your own frozen prepared foods such as stews, spaghetti sauce or casseroles. -Combine dried beans, pes, lentils, with chicken, fish or leftover meat. This will provide a satisfying pro- tein-rich dish. "PERM WAVING MANICURES Rt. 309, Dallas 675-6945 -When substituting dried beans and peas for a meat course, remem- ber preseasoned dried beans are more expensive. Experiment with herbs and spices and learn to season your food yourself. -Buy ‘‘good’”’ or ‘‘standard” grades of beef. They are the leanest and contain more protein and less fat than ‘‘prime’’ or ‘‘choice” grades. -The larger the turkey or chicken the more meat in relation to the bone and the more servings per pound. Chicken, turkey and fish often cost less than meat, and they have less fat and fewer calories. In addi- tion, fish fat is polyunsaturated. Many factors can influence your total food budget: What foods you buy, where you live and shop, how aration and how carefully you plan your meals. heads Hair Cutting and Design SH Mon. - Sat. 10 - 5 By CHARLOT M. DENMON Staff correspondent Diane Garnet of Lake Silkworth has a variety of simple and easy-to-prepare recipes to share with Post readers. Since her husband, John, is employed at Proctor & Gamble near Mehoopany, and works different shifts, there have been many weeks that Diane and her four-year-old daugh- ter, Michele, have dined alone. As a result, Diane has collected a file of recipes that are nutritious but take little time to prepare which gives her more time to spend with Michele. The former Diane Scavone, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Donald Scavone of Mooretown, returned to Mooretown from New Jersey in 1976 with her twin sister, Donna; her older brothers and sisters and her parents. She graduated from Lake-Lehman High School in 1977 and in 1980, she and John were married. Diane enjoys cooking best when John is home and she is able to prepare a full course dinner for family and friends. Since there are few children Michele's age living near the Garnet family, Diane spends a great deal of time with her daughter which doesn’t leave her a lot of leisure time. Diane likes to crochet and recently she learned how to do needlepoint which she finds enjoyable. She also likes to bowl and is a member of two leagues at Bonomo’s Sports Center. During the summer, Diane, John and Michele go family camping. Todate they hve camped at local campsites but in the near future they plan to camp at a site in another state. Living at a lake, it is natural that they enjoy the water, which they do. When weather permits, they do a lot of swimming and water skiing. The recipes Diane shares with Post readers this week are easy to prepare but equally delicious. Hamburg Barbecue takes only 10 to 20 minutes to prepare but makes a delicious lunch or a quick supper and can be served with a salad and vegetable. The Rib Ticklin’ Barbecue Sauce does not take a lot of preparation and cooking takes only 30 or 35 minutes. It is a delicious sauce for barbecued chicken, pork, or beef. Beer Batter Chicken, served with French fries, is ideal for outdoor picnics or for serving for summer suppers. It is easy to prepare as evening refreshments when friends come in for a night of games or cards. Apple Crisp makes a delicious dessert to top off any meal and is an American favorite.
