We haven’t had any recipes for a long time, so when I ran across these I thought they would be worth a look. Part of the Lenten tradition involves giving up something – usually a food, habit, or vice. Meat is abstained from during Lent. Just for fun, here are a few of the things people are giving up for Lent, according to the tracked usage of the word “Lent” by Google: fried foods, carbohydrates, chocolates and sweets, the internet, social media, Netflix, and makeup! Back to the recipes from the newspaper: the Cream of Spaghetti Soup and the Nut Dressing look a bit odd, though I may try them. The fish recipe looks pretty good, I think. But I am not a fan of Shredded Wheat no matter what is done to it!
