Wartime Wednesday: Macaroni Mousse for Six

Hot Macaroni Mousse for Six
(From Better Meals in Wartime)

1 Cup uncooked elbow macaroni
1 ½ Cups scalded milk
1 Cup soft, white breadcrumbs
¼ Cup melted margarine (Remember, this was wartime!)
1 green pepper, minced
1 Tablespoon chopped parsley
2 Tablespoons chopped onions
1 Teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon paprika
½ Cup grated cheese
3 eggs, beaten

Boil the macaroni in salted, boiling water as directed on the package. Drain and place in a greased bread pan or oblong baking dish.

Sauce: Pour scalded milk over breadcrumbs. Add margarine, onions, parsley, seasonings, green pepper, and cheese. Stir in well-beaten eggs and pour the entire mixture over the macaroni.

Set the dish or plan in a pan of hot water-allowing the water to come halfway up the side of the dish and bake 40 minutes or more in a moderate oven (350 degrees). Test by inserting a knife to be sure it is firm. Turn out on a platter and decorate with watercress. This can be served as a main dish and meat substitute.

About The Widow & The War Correspondent 

Are a new life and new love possible in a country devastated by war?

Barely married before she’s widowed after Pearl Harbor three years ago, journalist Cora Strealer travels to England where she’s assigned to work with United Press’s top reporter who thinks the last place for a woman is on the front lines. Can she change his opinion before D-Day? Or will she have to choose her job over her heart?

A sought-after journalist, Van Toppel deserves his pick of assignments, which is why he can’t determine the bureau chief’s motive for saddling him with a cub reporter. Unfortunately, the beautiful rookie is no puff piece. Can he get her off his beat without making headlines…or losing his heart?
