My mom would make us rigatoni. Basically spaghetti but she used Rigatoni pasta and 1 pound of lean hamburger and 1 pound of mild Italian sausage. Make or purchase spaghetti sauce and top with Kraft Parmesan cheese or fresh Parmesan if you could find it. Throw in a loaf of garlic bread or garlic toast and it’s dinner. She could whip it up in 30 minutes or less. I still make this often, it reminds me of my mother.
Love slum gully!!! Was a staple in my house growing up. Whenever my mom saw someone she thought was too skinny, she’d say they needed a bowl of slum gully. Oh what I would give to have her here to make me a big ol’ pot one more time!!! Much love
My Mom always made SOS at the end of the month because we were waiting on my Air Force dads paycheck before we could hit the commissary. Ours was made with ground beef though.
I still make stuffed cabbage, stuffed zucchini, and love SOS (although on rye toast). Hot dogs and beans were something we never ate unless mom left a jar of B&M baked beans and a couple of hot dogs for the babysitter to heat up for my brother and me.
Kraft Cheese Dinner is a budget saver. And a comfort food. We doctor it up. We add sautéed onions, peas and carrots and more cheese. We like to add chunks of some kind of meat, like ham, Spam, or hot dogs chunks. We might substitute the meat with cooked chicken chunks.
You haven’t mentioned soup. There’s vegetable soup, potato soup (thin broth with polish sausage or the chowder type), brown bean soup with ham, split pea soup, corn chowder. There are many variations. We ate a lot of chicken soup with noodles or dumplings.
Mock chicken legs are not vegan are they? Are they not made with ground pork, this is what I remember, I’m seventy eight years old and remember having these.
My mom always made chili mac but without the cheese. She never seemed to put cheese in the food budget for some reason. My favorite that she made was the Hobo Stew. But she called it Hobo Supper
@angelabluebird609 it's carrots potatoes ground beef and sometimes corn and onions. I made it the other day but she always made it on the stove top. I added a couple of hamburger dill pickles to mine though. She passed away in October and I've been finding myself making a lot of her dishes. And she also put garlic powder and onion powder in there salt and pepper
@@kimberlyyoung6517 You are so kind to share your mom's recipe, and I thank you. My mom and dad have passed as well. I wish you lovely memories and peace in the days ahead.
Never heard of hamburger pie, never saw it in a cookbook. No casseroles for us. My Mom cooked fried chicken, chuck roast, mashed potatoes, vegetables. Goolash? It's pronounced goolosh.
Casseroles are absolutely delicious! One of my family's favorites is unstuffed cabbage roll casserole.. yummy!! I make a lot of meat and potato meals, but I also like to do casseroles. My family loves them.
Again to many mixed in decades some 60's and other decades, I don't understand the clips of different show that are not of this decade between the recipes, it seems weird to me I was born on the 50's so just saying I think you could keep with decade that your advertising other wise just call a mixture of decades, I still enjoy watching just some suggestions

This brought back memories 😂😂 cabbage rolls tomato base or beff broth.

Pimento Cheese is cheese, pimentos, a pinch of dry mustard and Duke's mayo. Stir it til it gets a little glossy. That's it.
I just bought Dukes Mayo !
Never heard off until recently it’s really “Good” !!
@@novastariha8043 So glad you found it. It is THE mayo of the South. It is the only one that does not contain sugar. Enjoy :)
My mom bought a weeks worth groceries for $20 dollars back in the 60's and that was a lot of money back then you can't do that anymore.

That red stew with chunks of beef is Hungarian goulash, not American.

We love mashed potato pancakes. We add a lot of grated onions and garlic.
We also make scalloped potatoes and chuck steak.

Pimento sandwiches were party food on brioches.
I hated EggDrop Soup, but it was a staple for our Catholic family’s FridayNight Meal…I still hate it.
Looking at it makes me want to toss my cookies 😂
😂😂😂
I love egg drop soup ❤

The depression was in the 30's not the 60's
Poverty exists in all decades. But the 30s was country wide poverty on steroids
He referred to people's time during the Depression affecting how we ate in the 60's.
Mulligan Stew!! Never once I ever heard slumgullian! ???
It's basically the same dish with 2 different names. In the old movie "It happened on 5th Avenue" they eat slumgullion. 😊
Mock chicken legs are not vegan are they? Are they not made with ground pork, this is what I remember, I’m seventy eight years old and remember having these.
That's what I remember, too, not vegan...maybe a geographical difference?

What was/is in your mom's Hobo Stew? Do you make it?

O you don't know what you missed they are great I had all the meat and potatoes but also had the casserole usually on weekends or really busy day.
