On the most plentiful list of food commodities available for the next few weeks in Shelby and Effingham counties are: eggs, dried beans, dried peas, frozen fish, chickens, pork, apples, cabbage, carrots, dried prunes and raisins, said Miss Lena Riley, Nutritionist of the Shelby-Effingham Bicounty Department of Health. The headlines for an economy diet right now are centered about eggs.

Two eggs are considered the equivalent of an average serving of meat. Here is your opportunity to cut the family meat bill way down. The food uses for eggs are many, such as in french toast, souffles, angel food cake, muffins, waffles, Sunday morning pancakes, cornbread and many other popular dishes. There are many ways to scramble an egg. Basically, there are two ways to start in the skillet or in a double boiler.

There are many variations as to seasonings and added ingredients. If are light, it may be best one egg: Ordinariappetites, ly you should allow six eggs as an equivalent for servings of meat. Really hungry breakfasters can. often take care of two scrambled eggs at breakfast. And here's a recipe for an omelet.

Take two eggs, add a tablespoonful of milk for each egg, stir or beat lightly, and turn the mixture into a hot double boiler or skillet, together with a little bacon or ham fat. Keep stirring constantly until the eggs are just coagulated. Take them up while they still are moist. It is best to salt sOr pepper them as they are being scrambled. Also, keep the heat low as they are being cooked.

Some variations as to scrambled eggs are as follows: 1. Add chopped cooked bacon, or sliced cooked sausages, or bits of cooked ham. 2. Add minced green onion tops, or cut chives. (3.

Add half a cup of canned or cooked frozen corn to four to six eggs before scrambling. 4. Scramble the eggs with baked smoked herring, or other fish products. 5. Scramble eggs together with cooked potatoes, seasoned with onion and perhaps a little green pepper.

It is recommended that everyone buy an extra dozen eggs this week, and then try to take advantage of the nutritious goodness which they offer.
