Since the last issue, several Open
Liners sent me a copy of the following little ditty. Enjoy it and this
spring issue of your Bulletin!
I didn't have the potatoes,
so I substituted rice.
I didn't have paprika, so
I used another spice.
I didn't have tomato sauce,
1 used tomato paste.
A whole can, not a half can,
I don't believe in waste.
A friend gave me the recipe,
she said you couldn't beat it.
There must be something wrong
with her, I couldn't even eat it!

MEAT ROLL-UPS
Vicki Dass. Manchester
Crescent rolls

Sauce:
1 can cream of chicken soup
¾ cup milk or water
½-¾ cup grated cheese

SODA CRACKER TORTE
Sharon Jamison
3 egg whites
¾ cup sugar
1 tsp. baking powder
Beat egg and add sugar gradually. Add baking powder and beat. Mixture should be like a good meringue. Fold in 14 individual small soda crackers, crushed fine, very gently. Also you can add ½ cup nuts. Drop by tablespoon and make nest in center of each. Use a teflon cookie sheet or regular cookie sheet covered with brown paper. (Putting these on brown paper on a cookie sheet to bake is better.) Bake at 325° just till light brown and set. This makes a very light, not too sweet shell with a center to fill with whipped cream and fresh fruit of your choice. My favorite is fresh sliced peaches and home made ice cream.

CORRECTION: The Spinach Dip on page 7 of the January/February '87 bulletin supposed to be the Vegetable Dip. However, if you would like to add desired. Serves spinach our callers tell us that would be fine. I hope this error didn't cause you any problems.
CORRECTION: Overnight Cinnamon Rolls on page 5 of the January/February '87 bulletin should have included... Let rise until 9:00 p.m. Roll out, spread with butter, sugar and cinnamon. Roll up, cut into appropriate sizes, put into pans. Allow to rise until 6:00 a.m. the next day. Bake at 350° for 15-17 minutes. Frost and serve. Makes about 4 dozen.
