LUCILLE'S SWISS STEAK 1 round steak thick) flour 1 can mixed vegetables (do not drain) 1 8 oz. can tomato sauce 1 small can mushrooms (may be omitted) 1 medium onion (sliced) Pound all the flour into the steak so that it will absorb.

The meat can be left whole or cut into serving pieces. Brown on both sides in a roaster or other pan that can be put in the oven. Top with onion and bake about 1 hour in a 325 degree oven. Then add the un-drained mixed vegetables, tomato sauce and mushrooms. Bake another l'i to 2 hours.

Butter all sides of each section and sprinkle with salt, pepper and; oregano. Reassemble layering with onion slices. Double wrap with foil to keep the butter and juices in. Put right on the coals of an open grill for about an hour, turning every ten minutes or so. If you are using a Weber kettle they will probably be done in about 30 to 45 minutes.

My special thanks to Joan, Lucille and Beth for their cooperation in getting these recipes to me. This week I splurged on two items to help me in the kitchen. One is an egg slicer which I'll tell you about next week and the other is a nut mill. Besides being terrific for grinding nuts I've discovered the nut mill is great for making a few graham cracker crumbs without much fuss. Another hinMo go with last week's Sprits cookies-if you use the pinwheel plate and put a chocolate chip in the center of each cookie before baking they have that bakery look when they're finished.

Again I invite you to share your summertime recipes and hints with us. I've had several requests for different ideas for outdoor cooking. My number at home is 568-7748. Have a good week. ShadyLane offers group discounts Chapel No.
