Do away with vegetable 'ughs'

WEST LAFAYETTE - Tomatoes, lettuce, white potatoes and white onions What do they have in common?

homemakers found that homemakers also liked green beans, com. green peas, celery, cucumbers, carrots, cabbage and green peppers. Dr. Greger says. Homemakers said these vegetables are tasty and can be easily prepared in a variety of ways. But the popularity contest, like all contests, had its share of losers Fourteen vegetables rated a definite “ugh" from the homemakers Sweet potatoes were considered too high in calories, eggplant, to difficult to prepare, and asparagus and cauliflower, too expensive. Other low ranking vegetables were beets, black-eyed peas, broccoli, brussel sprouts, lima beans, okra, radishes, spinach, squash, and turnips — all of which received few votes because families didn’t care for their taste.

•‘And that’s a real shame.” Dr. Greger says, adding that there are several ways to turn your family's “ugh" vegetables into delicious family favorites "Use a little ingenuity,” she suggests. "Your family as well as your food budget will profit." The specialist explains that some of the vegetables on the "ugh” list are very inexpensive during the summer. Many can be grown easily and inexpensively in the home garden. Dr. Greger says homegrown vegetables can be combined in casseroles and salads for tasty, inexpensive dishes. And many vegetables are high in nutrition and low in calories. She suggests the following recipes: Summer Vegetable Casserole 1 pound yellow summer squash or zucchini squash 2 tablespoons butter or margarine 1 medium onion, thinly sliced 1 medium green pepper, cut into inch strips 3 medium tomatoes, peeled and quartered 1 teaspoon salt 1 teaspoon ginger Wash squash, remove stem and blossom end but do not pare. Cut

into l s inch slices. Melt butter in large skillet. Add squash, onion and green pepper; cook and stir over medium heat until vegetables are slightly brown. Cover; cook until squash is tender, about 6 minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in remaining ingredients. Cover; cook 2 to 3 minutes longer or until tomatoes are heated through. 4 to 6 servings. Spinach-Toss 1 pound spinach 2 tart red apples 8 slices bacon, crisply fried and crumbled two-thirds cup mayonnaise or salad dressing Mi cup frozen orange juice concentrated (thawed) Wash spinach; remove stems and tear leaves into bite-sized pieces, dry and chill. Just before serving, quarter, core and slice unpared apples into large salad bowl. Add spinach and bacon: toss. Mix mayonnaise and orange juice concentrate; serve separately to spoon over salad. 8 servings. Wax Factory now is open The Wax Factory, located at 743 S.

Power supply booster sought Development of a powerful new type of storage battery that could help alleviate the nation’s energy problem is the goal of a research project involving the Edison Electric Institute, the Tennessee Valley Authority and Rockwell International Corp.
