TOVAH FELDSHUH: ON UNIQUENESS

One of the great
motivating forces in my life
is uniqueness. As an actress
uniqueness is important,
because acting is more than
just role-playing. It
requires being able to
expose a quality that is
uniquely you.
In other areas of my life,
I look for uniqueness. Even
in my decaffeinated coffee.
Sanka® Brand Decaffeinated
Coffee is unique, because
it's the only leading,
national brand that is
naturally decaffeinated with
pure mountain water and
nature's own sparkling
effervescence. So, not only
is Sanka® smooth-tasting,
()KOSHER
but it addresses my concerns
about caffeine and food that
is naturally processed.
All of us have the
potential to be unique. All
we need is to experience that
part of us that's different
and enjoyable. For me, it
can be a challenging role in
a new play, or something as
simple as relaxing with a cup
of Sanka® Uniqueness ...
there are so
many ways to
enjoy it!
GENERAL
FOODS
Kids find us fun,
but our pasta's no joke.
Chef Boyardee® Dinosaurs, ABC's & 1, 2, 3's, and
Tic Tac Toes pasta is serious food kids love to eat.

is a source of protein that's also 95% fat free, and
contains complex carbohydrates without any pre-

1 quart.
Mujadarra
2 cups lentils (presoaked if
necessary
1 onion, finely chopped
safflower or oil oil
salt and pepper to taste
1 cup long grain rice
2 onions, thinly sliced
Place lentils in a four-quart
pot. Add one quart of water
and one teaspoon salt. Bring
to a boil. Cover, reduce heat
and simmer 1/2 hour or until
lentils are tender. Fry the
chopped onion in as little oil
as possible, (no more than 2
tablespoons), until they are
soft. Add to the cooked lentils.
When the lentils are tender,
add the rice and enough
water so the cooking liquid
equals 2 cups. Season with a
few grinds of fresh pepper and
another teaspoon of salt, if
desired. Cook, covered, for 20
minutes or until rice is ready.
Add more water if necessary.
In a medium frying pan,
heat 2 tablespoons of saf-
flower oil until hot. Fry the
sliced onions in this oil until
they are brown and crisp. Use
this to garnish the cooked len-
til/rice -.mixture. Serves 8
generously.

with a 3-inch round cutter.
Fill with about 1 teaspoon of
desired filling. Shape by

for about 20 minutes. Makes
