Recipes from this vintage volume (Copyright 1959, revised 1972):





Got a bunch of 'maters? Here's a bunch of tomato recipes!


More 'maters---but first a few squash dishes:


And finally, a couple things to do with ground beef. What truly proves this is a vintage recipe is the note in the Jumbo Burger recipe, where it says, "If the beef is lean, add suet." Yeah, right. The other one is more or less like SloppyJoes.


There are also recipes for things like Roast Raccoon and Squirrel Stew, but let's pass on the roadkill, shall we?

I have a special fondness for stuff like that, and the home ec book circa 1960. I haven't actually tried any of them, but I was trying to submit them to vintage_recipes...got rejected, possibly because I did my habitual LJ cut. (Years of posting fic has made that automatic.)

If I can ever get my kitchen to where I can cookmore than fried eggs in it, I may give some of these a try, there are things that sound delicious.
