School Cafeteria Recipes - Comfort or Discomfort Food?
I found a website that has USDA school cafeteria recipes. Remember
school cafeteria carrot-raisin salad, cornbread, chili, pizza? In some cases it was comfort food and in others it was discomfort food. Some of the recipes look better than when I was in elementary school mumble years ago. At least I don't see any recipes for gelatin with vegetables or fruit embedded in it. The recipes are in PDF format and are for 50 and 100 servings. Do you need 100-servings of carrot-raisin salad? At least Mastercook will scale them down. Here is the URL to the recipe list. You will need to have Adope Acrobat Reader installed in order to view the recipes. Right click on the recipe title to save it to you hard disk. http://www.nfsmi.org/Information/sch...dex_alpha.html Here is a list of some of the recipes: Apple Cobbler Apple Crisp Apple-Honey Crisp Applesauce Cake Arroz con Queso (Rice with Cheese) Baked Beans (Using Canned Vegetarian Beans) Baked Cajun Fish Baked Fish Scandia Baked French Toast Strips Baked Sweet Potatoes and Apples Baking Powder Biscuits Banana Bread Squares Barbecued Beef or Pork on Roll (Using Canned Meats) Barbecued Chicken Barbeque Sauce Bean Burrito Bean Soup Bean Taco Beef and Bean Tamale Pie Beef or Pork Burrito Beef or Pork Burrito (Using Canned Meats) Beef or Pork Taco Beef or Pork Taco (Using Canned Meats) Beef Shepherds Pie Beef Stew Beef Stir-Fry Beef Taco Pie Beef Tamale Pie Beef Vegetable Soup Bottom Pastry Crust (Sheet Pans) Bread Stuffing Breakfast Burrito with Salsa Broccoli Salad Broccoli, Cheese, and Rice Casserole Brown Bread Brown Gravy Brown Rice Pilaf etc., etc., etc. -Rusty |

[snip] When I was in high school I worked for two years in the kitchen that served the elementary and high school cafeteria. The menus started out standardized but changed as the school year passed because the availability of ingredients never kept to the plan. This was a small isolated town in Alaska with problematic freight deliveries in the winter. So I learned (by observation) about improvising around set menus. Looking back at it I remember three lessons learned: the cooks tasted as they went along, even things they'd made many times before according to the same recipe; the needs of producing in volume forces compromises that you have to make the best of -- steam tables are not a good thing; and practicing knife skills is fun. -aem |

Boy, I don't know what school(s) those came from, but back in my day the cafeteria food consisted of some sort of mystery meat in brown gravy; rice or mashed potatoes, some sort of vegetable (obviously canned). They had (obviously from frozen) hamburgers and limp crinkle-cut french fries. I think the "dessert" was Jell-O and/or pudding. There were no soups or stews; there were no stir-fry type things and I don't remember any bread other than the buns those frozen burgers came on. Oh, maybe white bread if you wanted a pimiento-cheese sandwich. Each day they did have some sort of "special", like tacos, which resembled tacos made from an Old El Paso dinner kit - pre-made so you didn't get to choose what toppings you might want (or not want) on them. Or (from frozen) battered fish fillets accompanied by those limp crinkle-cut fries. I never ate in the school cafeteria; I brown-bagged it. Jill |

We'd never heard of burritos or tacos or stir-fry or tamales. Or Cajun anything. What I remember were fish sticks with mac 'n cheese, meatloaf with mashed potatoes, spaghetti that wasn't too bad, and ravioli from a can, which I thought was terribly exotic. The only oriental fare was something they called beef chop suey, which was beef stew meat and oriental veggies (canned, I'm sure) with some soy sauce. It was heavy on the bean sprouts, served with a scoop of white rice, and wasn't too bad, considering. Fridays were always meatless, even though it was a public school. The hamburgers were weird. Just an odd taste. Maybe it was terminal freezer burn or something. Enough ketchup, and it improved, but they were definitely odd. Sometimes, on very rare occasions, we got pizza. Maybe once or twice a year. Around Thanksgiving, we always got "turkey dinner." Why they called it dinner, I don't know. Spaghetti always came with a weird side dish. Something that didn't match. Like mashed potatoes or something like that. I think it had something to do with the formula they had to use when creating a meal. Ah, memories.... (burp) Donna |

No matter the Jell-O flavor nor fruit, it was always topped with a teaspoonful of mayonnaise and a half cherry. It is a credit to those ladies who fed all the children on what the government food commodities program sent. A gruff WW II Supply Sergeant would bow to their craft & creativeness. If you want child abuse in that era, just smart off at one and see what happened when Momma found out.....DAMHIK.... Hubert > |

I'm about to start Cullinary school in a few weeks, and actually, unlike a lot of people who go that route probably, my goal is to work in a school/daycare or retirement home setting. Seems like it'd be more rewarding than say at a fancy resturant to me, even if hte pay isn't as good. Some of those could also be useful if I can swing things next summer to maybe take over the Wednesday night dinners @ my church. > Do you need 100-servings of carrot-raisin salad?

School Cafeteria Recipes - Comfort or Discomfort Food?
I developed a deep-seated hatred of salmon after being served salmon
salad sandwiches on Fridays, alternating with tuna salad, peanut butter, and grilled cheese sandwiches. Back in the old days, Roman Catholics weren't allowed to eat meat on *any* Fridays. I loved the hamburger gravy with mashed potatoes and corn. All stirred together. Crash and I do this with meatloaf instead of hamburger gravy. The effect is pretty much the same. I remember huge sheets of cornbread, covered with a thick layer of butter and spread with honey. Also plain bread smeared with a couple tablespoons of butter per slice. Made them stick to the ceiling better. I don't like unmelted butter to this day. Can't remember anything else right offhand. Peace, Carol |

I enjoy feeding people smoked fish much more than grilled. It's more fun to make and really good smoked fish is harder to come by. -- Reg |

See? I think Rusty may have thought I was being more serious with my "and your point is what?" than I was. Cream cheese on top would still, in my book, let it qualify as a sald, but as soon as you put Cool Whip on top, you gotcherself a dessert. ;-) -- -Barb <http://jamlady.eboard.com> Updated 3-30-2006 Enchiladas for Two "If it's not worth doing to excess, it's not worth doing at all." |

She served them with a white sauce containing chopped cucumber and fresh dill. I occasionally make them that way for myself. I occasionally will order salmon croquettes in a local restaurant, and they are served with a white sauce containing green peas. I don't like any fish preprepared with or served with tomato products. -- Wayne Boatwright @¿@¬ _____________________ |

We had orange jello with shredded cabbage and carrots, chopped celery, and crushed pineapple. It sounds awful, but I loved it as a child, and would make it again but the DH would probably rush me to the ER to have my head examined (he's neither a fan of jello nor cabbage). I also loved the molded jello salad with lime jello, cream cheese, crushed pineapple, marachino cherries and walnuts. Hmmmmm.....maybe it would be worth a quick trip to the ER.... Sandy |

From grade school to high school - we always had GREAT food. The rolls were legendary!! Chicken and dumplings were to die for... The canned collard greens w/turnips were actually good and OH MY STARS - the Bread Pudding!!!!!!!!!! It's amazing that I wasn't over 300 pounds... Even the tater tots were good. Pizza was mediocre but who cares - the rest of the stuff was so good. I will never forget this... grade school - they had this salad dressing that was incredible. Celery Seed vinegrette. WOW!! Yeah... good stuff! -- Syssi |
