This is the recipe my grandmother used when she was growing up during the great depression. 70 years later, it's still a delicious, satisfying form of comfort food. Serve immediately with saltine crackers. Tastes even better after sitting in the refrigerator over night. In my grandmother's day, they would have 'refrigerated' it on the back porch overnight!

School Lunch Bagel Sandwich
This sandwich mixes the goodness of bagels with the crunch of dill pickles. I came up with this sandwich for my son who loves bagels and cream cheese but I felt his favorite needed something extra to really make it a lunch. This is kid-tested good, and you can alter the veggies according to what your child likes.
Chicken Enchilada Casserole
A great chicken enchilada recipe for a hot summer night, and all you have to do is pair it with a salad and rice. It's best when you let it cool and set for a bit (but my sister likes it best piled on top of tortilla chips). Serve with Mexican rice and a salad if desired.
Hearty Greek Lentil Soup
Warm, hearty lentil soup, don't forget the bread to soak up the leftover sauce at the bottom of your bowl.
