Place a medium-sized whole onion (peeled) in the pot with the peas and boil with them for flavoring. If water boils away before peas are done, add some more. Use no salt, as salt hardens the water and takes longer to cook the peas. When done remove the onion and mash peas thru a sieve ; now add salt to taste, two eggs beaten light; stir well and put into oiled pan (small deep bread tin is best) and bake fifteen to twenty minutes. When done turn out the loaf on a platter and turn over it tomato or mushroom sauce. Garnish with parsley or mint. MACARONI WITH CHEESE.
