MAIN DISHES - OTHER

This chapter contains a variety of main dishes for any occasion. Whether you’re planning a dinner party for later in the week or just got home from work with no idea what to cook for supper, chances are you will be able to find inspiration among your supply of mixes.

If your freezer contains CUBED PORK MIX, you’re on the way to Pork Chow Mein or Sweet & Sour Pork. For company fare, Stuffed Pork Chops are a cinch when you have HERBED STUFFING MIX and BEEF GRAVY MIX on hand.

Dry Mixes can be used in many ways—QUICK MIX in Self-Crust Cheese Tart, BUTTERMILK PANCAKE & WAFFLE MIX in Monte Cristo Sandwiches or CORN BREAD MIX to treat the kids to Corn Dogs.

You will also find seafood recipes in this chapter—Crunchy Fish Bake, Scallop Casserole and Shrimp & Vegetable Stir-Fry.

Convenience cooking with mixes would not be complete without stir-frying. It is quick and it is healthy. Keep a supply of ORIENTAL STIR-FRY MIX in your refrigerator to make it even easier. If you do not have a wok, use a heavy skillet. Prepare all of the ingredients before heating the oil because there won’t be time once you begin cooking. The vegetables should be cooked just until crisp-tender, releasing their flavor while maintaining their bright color and texture.

Our new PINTO BEAN MIX was the inspiration for South of the Border Vegetarian Bake. You can substitute yogurt for the sour cream called for in the recipe. The combination of beans and rice make this a complete-protein dish.
