Mackerel Surprise


This recipe is an example of doing something with very little. Lessons from the Depression.

Break one box of spaghetti into tiny pieces and boil until tender. Drain and add 2/3 c. butter and a little black pepper. Mix well and place into a casserole. Then take 1 can mackerel, separate into good sized pieces, salt to taste, and place pieces around over the spaghetti. Press down into the spaghetti, add a dash of pepper over all. Bake in moderate oven for 20 minutes.
