When they are trans- formed into a delicious shepherd's pie. This substantial and satisfy- ing casserole dish has,_begn a Can- adian favorite for as long as Trialof our Grandmothers can remem- ber and undoubtedly owes its pop- ularity to the fact that, like the famous French ragout, it can be varied to suit the individual taste of the cook. dough with a sweet frosting, and the pairing of. two favorite flavors should make this recipe one that appeals to everyone's taste. — ehtataCrtate-ft osted Coffee Buns Yield -2 dozen buns 1/2 cup milk % cup granulated sugar % teaspoon salt 1 tablespoon instant coffee 'lz cup lukewarm water • Any shepherd's pie, in fact, is likely to be different from any other one, even when made by the same hand, because it lends it- self delightfully to the addition of whatever the cook feels like add- ing—or has on hand—that day. And with the recent introduction of the handy tuelw packafied soups, modern homemakers can achieve a wider variety of results (with less effort) than their Grandmoth- ers ever contemplated. Latest addition to a tasty shep- herd's pie is a new packaged toma- to soup just introduced in Canada that not only imparts a tangy fla- vor but also gives the pie an at- tractive rosy hue. Added to the other ingredients as a basic part of the pie, it also provides art un- usual and delicious potato topping that lifts the dish into the "culin- ary masterpiece" field! Blend the tomato soup with sour cream into the two cups of mashed potatoes, and spread it over the top, then bake in a hot oven for a jiffy 10 minutes. Such a shepherd's pie may well make your reputation as a creative chef. Especially if you flute your rosy potato topping through a tube! Our recipe today suggests using round steak cut into cubes, but of course you may use the remains of your Sunday roast—if you have any. The delicate onion flavor comes from sprinkling packaged onion soup over the browned beef cubes, before adding the water, and then simmering the meat in this .until it is tender. Result: mouth - watering onion bouquet without tears! Rosy Shepherd's Pie 1 tablespoon shortening 11 pounds stewing beef, cut into 1 -inch cubes 1 package onion soup 3 cups water (approximately) 1 (10 oz.) package frozen mix- ed vegetables 1 package tomato, soup 1 teaspoon salt. teaspoon pepper 2 tablespoons flour (approxi- mately) 4 tablespoons water 2 cups mashed potatoes 1 cup sour cream. In Dutch oven or heavy skillet, brown meat in shortening. Sprinkle in onion soup; add water. Sim- mer, covered, until meat is ten- der, about one hour. Cook frozen vegetables according to package directions. Add 2 tablespoons to- mato soup, salt and pepper to meat. Make a paste of flour and water and stir into meat to make gravy, Combine vegetables and meat mixture and pour into a 2 - quart casserole. Blend remaining tomato soup and sour cream into mashed potatoes; spread over top of casserole. Bake in a preheated (425 deg F) oven 10 minutes. Makes 6-8 servings. Teamed To Tempt Coffee is such a popular bever- age in America it's only natural that it has come to be used as a flavor ingredient in ice-cream, gravies, home • baking, etc. How- ever, it wasn't always regarded with such favor. Like all novelties there were numerous objections to this beverage when it was first in- troduced into England. But sen- sible Englishmen welcomed the use of coffee in their country for a curious reason, In 1659 an Eng- lish writer summed up many peo- ple's feeling when he observed that "this coffee=drink hath caused a great sobriety among all nations; formerly apprentices, clerks', etc., used to take their morning draughts of ale, beer or wine, which often made them unfit for business. Now they play the good - fellows with this wakeful and civil drink": Today's recipe for Chocolate - Frosted Coffee .Buns makes a de- lightful dessert, or quite naturally, a snack for the coffee break. The yeast -raised buns are light and moist with a small amount of in- stant coffee added to give them an unusual and very pleasant flavor. The Chocolate Frosting on the buns adds the crowning touch in both appearance and flavor.

Shape each piece into a smooth ball and place, about two inches apart, on ,greased cookie sheets. Grease tos. Cover with a tea towel.
