Hi Davina! I even think it is more amazing because they thought of this recipe from what was in their ration box... Thanks for coming by Patricias last blog post..Factoid Friday: Bagdad Hash

Hi Patricia. Mmmm cashews! This is quite an interesting combination of ingredients. I always wonder how cooks come up with good combinations. I usually fail unless I have a recipe. Davinas last blog post..Akemi Gaines On Intuition, Dreams And Spiritual Guidance–Interview Part 1

Robin,
Welcome and thank you for your comments. This is so fast, quick and inexpensive, but I just love that it is made out of the things that came in a ration box during the depression and it turned out so yummy.

Cath,
I hope you enjoy it…I think the mung bean sprouts add a great deal to this inventive fast food!

Hi Patricia – Thanks for sharing the recipe. I will definitely be trying it. I’ve used sweetcorn and tuna with pasta a lot but I never thought about trying celery.

Canned tuna and noodles is a standard meal in our house! Because we believe in an easy life and we like it! Broccoli is standard, too. It's amazing how you can make simple things really yummy - in our case, we add garlic, chili, and balsamic vinegar or lemon juice to just about everything.

Dot, this is a wonderful and fast dish even if you don’t like to cook and just takes a few minutes to prepare…I love it for it fast food elements especially on a tired Friday night!

Jannie,
My husbands’ Aunt and Mother were called liars at school during the depression, because they told their teacher they were going home for dinner: roasted chicken and biscuits and potatoes and beans and apricots for dessert…The teacher did not “think” that the girls were going home to their chicken farm – as long as their was energy there was food on the table. Water was their biggest problem….and they had worked on that too…
I am so grateful for all the folks who went before me and shared their lessons of having a “charmed life.”…and their good food! Blessed are we.

I guess there is something very good to be said for the back-breaking work of farm life as Dad and his family never went hungry during the Depression. Beef, carrots, potatoes, turnips, eggs, oats, they ate like kings in the 1930s. Cut their own wood too so they didn't freeze in those Canadian winters. I am grateful for all my ancestors. And to God for providing all. Jannies last blog post..Sometimes in dreams

I've never heard of this. I like celery, so it sounds good. I may give it a try. I'm not big on cooking. Dots last blog post..The “Thing Conspiracy”
