Answer to "The Young Maid" [extra from Vol. 5#4]

The Question Was:

"Do you have ideas for menu-planning?
I would like to provide nutritious and
economical meals for my family." -Menuless Chiefess

 

Dear Menuless Chefess,

My grandma was a cook for a small Bible college several years ago. She passed away recently, and when we went through her things, we found these menu plans she had kept. I know they are not necessarily healthy or economical, but I thought they might give you some ideas.
