Several recipes are included in the other sections of 'Eating Right is Basic' recipes. For more ways to use the Master Mix see pages Mixes-8 through 12.To measure the Master Mix when using it in recipes, first stir then pile it lightly in a cup then level it off with a knife. Whole Grain Master Mix (see page Mixes-15) can be substituted for Master Mix. |
