6 eggs
1/4 cup milk
Stir all together well
Pour in hot skillet (I like cast iron)

flip with big spatula and cook other side 'til golden brown

scrambled eggs instead of an omelet, don't worry the taste is
the same)
Serve with plenty of catsup (I'm not kidding!)
And hot, buttered toast.
Serves 2-4 depending on appetite size.
1 head iceberg letter, washed and torn in small chunks
(cutting it with a knife leaves rust marks!)
1/2 cup diced celery
(wash the whole bunch under cold, running water, then drain,
now you will be able to slice off the end perfect pieces in
one fell swoop - store in frig and keep doing this as you
need more celery, it keeps forever this way and is less
messy - and no, there are no rust marks)
Use a variety of vegetable, fresh chopped or bits of cooked
leftovers (green beans, broccoli, asparagus)
Bean spouts or olives or mushrooms or everything can go into
this salad

(hard boiled eggs quartered are a nice garnish)

seasoned with garlic salt, onion salt, or dill weed (or all).

you like)

add 1/8 cup chopped onion to dressing as it heats almost to a
boil then
Quickly add salmon, cheese and croutons to spinach greens
Stir gently but fast...
Eat immediately.

rings if you like fresh onions)
2 cans cream of celery soup or mushroom or of each
2 cans cream, milk or plain yogurt
1 Tab dry onion soup
Dash of wine (vermouth or red wine)
1 cup grated Swiss cheese or 1 oz pkg of cream cheese

TOMATO
SOUP GARNISH WITH SMOKED SALMON RECEIPE
Bits of smoked salmon severed with oyster crackers on
tomato soup is nice
OR serve the salmon-tomato soup over toast or hamburger buns.
Moisten smoked salmon bits with mayo
Spread on bread (you choose - I like rye)
Garnish with thinly sliced cucumbers.
Use lots of each for a man's sandwich and
small, crust less, white bread for an open-faced lady's
tea sandwich.
For a hero try using split French bread rolls,
adding sliced tomatoes, cheese and lettuce and a top.
ADD smoked salmon cubes to your favorite macaroni salad,
already made or from the deli.
