Notes:*"During our "0ff-season" we never know from one day to the next whether we will have 2 or 10 for dinner. Since we are forty miles from the nearest large market, we try to keep products on hand that can easily be converted into an interesting vegetable dish ~ such as good quality frozen whole green beans, peas, or spinach."
