Croutes, a la Marie
Another inspired daily menu from our friendly Crisco Cookbook. Again, we have cooked vegetables in the form of baked cucumbers – not so sure about this one, but will hold out on passing judgement until I’ve heard from my wise and worldly readers.

Overall, this menu seems more suitable for a party tray than an actual dinner. I’m not sure that I’d mix my foie gras with Crisco.
Have a great day!

Oh my! I have an old Crisco cookbook somewhere and I had to stop at the bread and Crisco sandwiches! Did they have the recipe for the oyster balls with horseradish?
