I remember seeing recipes like these in the 60s and 70s when my dad was in the United States Air Force, except they didn’t look this good. My dad and his friends used to complain sometimes that the Navy of all the branches of the United States Armed Forces fed their people the best.
I remember one time when I was flying from Detroit to Phoenix on the long-defunct Republic Airlines, we were given this yellowish cube of food with little chunks of something pale orange in it. I was the only one on the flight who recognized it was a quiche made from powdered eggs and dehydrated salmon, thanks to some of the surplus field rations my dad sometimes brought home. 🤢

Can these recipes be halved? I don’t usually need 20lbs of lasagna.
