Oddly, that book is not found on eBay.

Here's a sloppy joe recipe which is quick, easy to fix, and yummy:
1 lb hamburger
1 C ketchup
1 sliced onion
1/4 C vinegar (I use apple cider vinegar, but suit yourself)
1 tbs sugar
1/2 tsp dry mustard
Brown and drain hamburger. Add other ingredients. Simmer, covered,
20 minutes.

<analyzes recipe> I can taste it pretty much, and it's basic enough
almost to memorize. I'm curious to know how it would handle chili
powder or another basic seasoning, such as pepper.
I've used a sloppy Jos variant that uses lentils.

If I were going to do that, I'd substitute tomatoes for the ketchup.
But then the recipe starts to get complicated. ;)

barring that, you can make your own ketchup. Still complicated, more
hassle, but probably a slight easier to figure out. What about tomato
sauce?

re: 24, standard casserole recipe.
For us it's always
A starch thing, a meat thing, a vegetable or fruit thing.
(Almost all fish makes my stomach feel queer, so no fish, and Dave
has problems with too much milk product, so we minimize dishes that
depend on cheese -- sometimes add cheese toppings at the last minute)

I tried my friend's Goop. I made macaroni and cheese -- from scratch,
which takes over a minute longer than making it from a box, oh, the
horrors! -- and added tuna fish and corn.
I called it Toxic Waste. I guess I was hoping my kid would go over to
his mother's house and talk about how we had Toxic Waste for dinner.
He, however, didn't follow the plan. He described it as being very
appropriately named, and opted for a sandwich instead. "Why'd you have
to put in the tuna fish and corn?" "You said you called it Toxic Waste
so we wouldn't have to feel bad if we didn't eat it!"
Who would have thought a 7 year old would be so affected by a marketing
decision? Next time I'll call it "Harry Potter's Magic Delight" and
he'll probably love it.
I just had leftover Toxic Waste for lunch, and I still thought it was
fine.

Either you haven't read enough Calvin & Hobbes comics with him, or
they didn't take.

I think John III is just sort of set in his food habits and the name was
irrelevant.

So simple:
brown ground meat or TVP with some pepper and nutmeg, put aside
make oatmeal, a little thick
Add poultry spice, garlic powder, onion powder to the oatmeal
mix in the meat (or substitute)
Stir over low heat for 10 minutes
Serve
