1 tsp. lemon juice (optional)
1 can(s) tuna fish (7 ounces)
1 can(s) condensed cream of mushroom soup

Chicken Spaghetti
------------------
1 pound spaghetti
1 can cream of chicken soup
1 can nacho cheese soup (or cheddar cheese soup)
1 can tomato soup
1 can white chicken (like in a tuna can)
Cook and drain spaghetti and return to large pot. If water
is scarce, save the water. Add canned ingredients, warm and serve.
Variations include:
Picante sauce or ro-tel tomatoes instead of tomato soup
Leave out chicken
Use canned chicken broth for moisture in large servings
Add peppers, onions, olives

---------
Individual bags of Fritos, one for each person
Wolf Brand chili without beans
Cheddar and Monterey Jack cheeses, grated and mixed together
Onions, finely grated
Fresh tomatoes, finely chopped
Picante sauce
Assorted olives, chopped
Avocado, cubed
Set out a big pot of chili surrounded by decorative bowls
of condiments. Split open bags of Fritos down one side. Open. This
is your "bowl." Top Fritos with chili and condiments of your choice.
Eat with a spoon.

Preserving your own home-grown fruits and vegetables can add zest to
your food storage.

the answer to the frustrations of most gardeners. 'I found a better way
to garden,' says Mel, 'one that's more efficient, more manageable and less
work.' This result is Square Foot Gardening. His method has received world-wide
recognition for its simplicity and uniqueness and has been written up in
every major newspaper and gardening magazine."

This Month’s Frugal Living Tips:
==============================
Garden, can & preserve your home-grown foods. Learn tips
from organic gardening books & periodicals. Even if you have
to grow your tomatoes in flower pot and your squash in a hanging basket,
get in touch with Mother Nature. You'll feel better for playing in
the soil, and you'll have fresh vegetables at a fraction of the cost of
supermarket vegetables.
