1920s Lyonnaise Potatoes Recipe

This is actually a very good recipe for potatoes! It's easy to make and adds a side dish to your meals that is a welcome difference from the usual - 1923 recipe.

One quart cold boiled potatoes ~ boil and allow to cool off and cut into 'dice' or small squares
3 Tbsp. butter
1/4 of a chopped onion
1 Tbsp. chopped parsley
Salt & Pepper

Saute the onions in the butter until they brown ~ then remove onions
Add the potatoes to the butter
Stir potatoes with a fork, being careful not to break them
When potatoes are hot, add the parsley and put the onions back in with potatoes and cook two minutes longer (parsley can be omitted)

Wilted Lettuce Recipe

This was my mom's recipe that she made at most family barbecues. Very tasty!

Ingredients:
1 head lettuce cut into pieces
5 strips bacon
6 Tbsp. vinegar (plain, white)
6 Tbsp. water
salt and pepper (to taste)
3 Tbsp. brown sugar
green stem onions ~ chopped
hard boiled egg - optional

Fry the bacon strips and crumble them up ~ save the bacon drippings

Combine vinegar, water, salt & pepper and brown sugar with the bacon drippings and heat to a boil.
Add crumbled bacon to above mixture

Pour vinegar mix onto chopped up lettuce and toss to wilt ~ add chopped up hard boiled eggs as an option.

Easy!

Broccoli Rice Casserole Recipe

This is my 'I better show up at family dinners with it' recipe. Please note that I do use 'name brand' ingredients as I've found that generic or cheaper versions alters the taste.

Ingredients:
1 cup rice (uncooked)
1 10 oz. can Cambell's Mushroom Soup
1 small jar Cheez Whiz
1/2 cup chopped onion
1/2 stick butter/margarine (to saute the onions)
1 small package chopped frozen broccoli

Set broccoli out to thaw a couple hours before preparing. I like my broccoli chopped, but if I can't find chopped and have to buy just frozen 'broccoli pieces', I chop it up smaller myself.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Prepare 1 cup of rice per package directions. While that is cooking, saute onions in butter in a small skillet.

Mix all ingredients ~ rice (while still warm ~ it causes the Cheez Whiz to melt and mix well), broccoli, sauted onions, Cheez Whiz and mushroom soup ~ into a square glass casserole and bake for 30-45 minutes or until slightly browned.

That's it ~ enjoy!
