Frugal and Painless Thanksgiving Recipes

Right here it is - that time of year when everyone's thoughts turn to food! I'm thankful that at our property, we have a lot of food, but often I am not so grateful that I am the 1 who commonly gets to cook it!

So I am consistently on the lookout for relatively easy, tasty recipes that are also simple on the spending budget. Right here are a couple of of my family's favorites:

Corn-Rice Casserole

1 1/2 cups minute rice (uncooked)

2 cans cream-style corn

1 little onion, chopped

1 medium green pepper, chopped

1/2 cup butter or margarine

8 oz. jar Cheez Whiz

Melt butter in sizeable saucepan and add onion and green pepper. Cook until tender. Add other ingredients and cook on low for about five minutes, stirring quite often.

Pour into greased 2-quart baking dish and bake at 350 degrees until bubbly.

Sweet Potato Casserole

2 16-oz. cans sweet potatoes

1/four cup butter

three/four cup sugar

1/2 tsp. salt

2 eggs

1/2 cup milk

1 tsp. vanilla

Topping:

1 cup brown sugar

1/four cup butter

2 tsp. cinnamon

1/four cup flour

Drain sweet potatoes and mash. Add other ingredients and mix effectively. Pour into ungreased 9" square baking pan. Mix all topping ingredients till crumbly. Spread on yams then bake at 350 degrees for 40 minutes.

Tip: You can make this the day before. Just refrigerate till you are ready to bake.

This 1 is ideal for supper the night before Thanksgiving.

Harvest Time Soup

1 1/2 cups water

1 cup cubed potatoes

1/2 cup chopped carrots

1/2 cup chopped celery

three/four lb. process cheese spread, cubed

1 cup ham, cubed

Bring water, potatoes, carrots and celery to a boil. Cut down heat and simmer till vegetables are tender.

Add cheese and ham cook, stirring till cheese is melted.

This makes about four servings, but it could simply be cut in half or doubled.

Samuel Adams, father of the American Revolution:

"It is thus advised ... to set apart Thursday the eighteenth day of December next, for solemn thanksgiving and praise, that with 1 heart and 1 voice the very good consumers may well express the grateful feelings of their hearts and consecrate themselves to the service of their divine benefactor ..."
