Foreword

Our object in the preparation of this little book at this critical time in our nation's history, when the conservation of food by the women of the country is a part of our battle array, is to put before the housewives of America, at low cost, recipes for dishes so simple, nourishing, and attractive that the matter of reducing the household expenditure and the preserving of the food supply will be an interesting pastime rather than a disagreeable experiment.

We have not gone into the matter of food values as we feel that the average housewife from her own experience will realize from the recipes themselves their substantial qualities.

Once introduced into the family circle they are certain to make many friends who will cling to them long after the war is over.

The practical self-denial of our meatless and wheatless days is strengthening the arms and the hearts of all Americans at home in a peaceful land or abroad in the turmoil of war, as well as sending food to thousands stripped of the very necessities of existence.
