CREAM TOAST. No. 1.

Prepare like water toast. Bring some fresh cream to a boil with a stick of cinnamon. Add when the toast is soft. Use black or white toast.

CREAM TOAST. No. 2.

Prepare a white sauce from butter, salt, flour and hot water, as directed in “Sauces.” Add one-fourth of a cup of hot cream and pour over black toast, which has been softened with one-half cup of hot water.

CREAM TOAST. No. 3.

Use sweet whey in place of hot water, and prepare as No. 2. The cream may be omitted.

CELERY TOAST.

Cut some celery and cook until tender. Soften the toast with the celery water. Prepare a plain butter sauce and add cream, if desired. Mix with the celery and pour over the toast.

SPINACH TOAST.

Cut off the stems and select only fresh, tender leaves. Cook and chop as fine as possible, flavoring with butter and lemon juice. Soften some black or white toast with broth or spinach water, and add the spinach. Serve with hard boiled eggs for dinner. If it is desired for supper, and if the patient’s stomach is delicate, use only the hard yolks. Fried beachnut bacon may be added. If the flavor of onion is desired, remove the onion before serving. This is good for constipation.
