POOR MAN'S TOFFEE
This toffee/cookie/brittle type of treat is great to whip up in just minutes with almost nothing in the pantry! I guess that's why it's called Poor Man's Toffee!

Steps:
- 1. Line a 13 X 9 or close to that size, pan with foil. (I use the non-stick type and it can be reused over and over).
- 2. Place graham crackers on the foil with entire bottom covered in crackers. If you have any space, just break some crackers and fill it in with the broken pieces.
- 3. Combine butter, sugar in a saucepan; cook until it's melted about 2 minutes. Add nuts. Remove from stove and set aside.
- 4. Pour buttery mixture over the crackers and spread to sides. Don't worry if it's thin in spots--when it heats it will spread evenly. Bake at 350 degrees for 10 minutes--my oven bakes fast so I watch it at 8 minutes! It shouldn't be very brown--just golden brown. Remove and cool. (I put mine outside on the deck or you can put it in the fridge to hurry it up) Break into pieces and watch it disappear fast!
POOR MAN'S FEAST
My kids and I watched Clara make this recipe on one of her depression cooking YouTube videos. We then tweaked it for our tastes. It's very easy and economical, and surprisingly good for such simple ingredients. Although it takes 25 minutes on the stove top, you only have to stir occasionally, so you can be doing other things in the kitchen while it cooks. The amount of hot dog wieners you add just depends on how meaty you want it, and the size of the wieners. As Clara says, "It's nourishing!" although it's a little high in fat and sodium for every day in our household.
