This is another one of my oldest recipes from the cookbook I made for Christmas gifts way back in my husband’s student days when we barely had two nickels to rub together and could not afford to buy any presents. I already had a solid repertoire of cheap meals, and I compiled them in a simple little booklet that I entitled “Meatless Marvels”, which I gave to everyone in my family.
Now, you have to understand that the whole notion of going without meat was pretty much unheard of in those days. It was even considered unhealthy by many. I remember having a discussion once with someone who advised me that I should never have children if I intended to feed them meat-free meals of any kind.
All I can say is that my four sons did just fine with my “meatless marvels”. We did not eat exclusively vegetarian, but mostly so, and their health most definitely did not suffer.
