Fried Sandwiches
Dip leftover sandwiches in 1 egg slightly beaten with 2 tbsp water or milk and 1/2 tsp salt. Fry in drippings until browned on both sides.
Baked Egg Hash
Grease a deep pie dish and arrange a thick layer of grated or chopped leftover potatoes; sprinkle with salt and pepper, dot with butter or margarine and sprinkle with a little minced parsley, chives or onions. Beat 2-3 eggs until light add 2 tbsp milk for each egg, salt and pepper. Pour over potatoes and bake in moderate oven, 350-375 degrees F for 20-30 minutes.
Changes for Baked Egg Hash
Add stewed tomatoes or tomato juice in place of milk.
Leftover corn or carrots may be added to the potatoes.
Beverages to use in place of coffee
Use 1 tbsp black molasses to 1 cup bran. Rub through the hands until well blended. Pile in large dripping pan and brown well (almost black) in a moderate oven, stirring occasionally to prevent actual burning. When cold pack away in airtight containers and make the same as boiled coffee – 1 tbsp to 1 cup water (you may prefer it weaker), serve hot or iced.
