Many casseroles take well to
pork chop toppers. Simply place
browned V2-inch thick pork chops
on top of casseroles containing
Spanish rice, scalloped corn, hom-
iny, creamed cabbage, macaroni
and cheese, creamed onions or
mashed squash. Cover and bake
in a moderate oven (350°F.) for
30 minutes or until done,
Over 200 varieties of ready-to-
serve meats are made by approxi-
mately 3,000 meat processors in
the United States. Many of these
are inspired by Old World vari-
eties and bear the names of towns
or localities where they origina-
ted, such as Bologna, Frankfurt,
Genoa, Salamis, Thuringia, and
Vienna.
Thin slices of spicy hard salami
or chorizos (a Spanish sausage)
add snappy sparkle to salads
made of several kinds of greens
or vegetables. When the salad is
to serve as a main dish for hmch-
eon or light supper, use a cum-
bination of readydoserve meat.
In this ease create flavor cotv
trasts with some mildly seasoned
sausagt's and others which are
hot and spicy.
