Meatless Cookery

Published as America rationed meat for the war, this is a whole cuisine built without it — nut roasts and cheese soufflés, dasheen and okra soups, vegetable gelatine, and a chapter on what to do with the whites of eggs.

Bean Croquettes

3 cups stewed or baked beans 3 cups corn flakes 2 tablespoons butter 3 tablespoons strained tomato 1 1/2 teaspoons salt Soak one cup of beans in cold water over night, then cook in three or four pints of water, and cook until tender; when quite dry, add the butter, strained tomato and salt if desired. Lastly, fold in the cornflakes--the quantity of flakes will depend upon the dryness of the beans--and form into croquettes. When shaped, place in a hot oven, and bake until nicely browned.
