DEPRESSION ERA HAMBURGERS

One of the meals she made to make sure everyone got some food were these thin burgers. The taste is awesome

- Hot Milk Cake. Through my research of Depression Era recipes, I realized that dessert was a big deal to them during this time, and did they ever know how to make some delicious desserts out of very few ingredients.
- Granny’s Cocoa Cream Pie. My husband loves chocolate pies. His mother made a great version of this pie and just like the woman who created this recipe, she too was very resourceful.
- Dandelion Salad. I love this woman’s site. She is in her mid 90’s and has her own Youtube channel to share her Depression Era meals that she ate as a child.
- Depression Era Breakfast. This is another video of Ms. Clara’s that recounts her childhood during the Great Depression. She shares what they ate for breakfast.
- Great Depression Pizza. Ms. Clara shared a few videos, lots of knowledge, and many great stories with the internet before her passing in 2013. But one of her greatest videos (in my opinion) is this Depression Era pizza.
- Grape Pie. As we all know, the Great Depression was a time of necessary resourcefulness. You had to use what you had available in order to simply survive on a day to day basis.
- Potato Casserole. Potatoes were a staple ingredient during the Depression because they were cheap, and you could grow them yourself. So it should come as no surprise that someone figured out how to take a few basic ingredients (cream of chicken soup, onion, butter, etc.)
- 9 Depression Era Meals. This site is a great Depression Era recipe resource. They literally give you 9 recipes from the Depression that you can still enjoy today.
- Pan Bread. I’ve eaten this many a time with my mother-in-law. When we wanted a bread to go with supper but didn’t have enough time to make a fresh loaf, then we’d make this bread together.
- Shoo Fly Pie. This pie not only has a great name, but it looks delicious as well. You use pretzels to make a graham cracker like crust. Then you fill the pie crust with a brown sugar and molasses filling.

- Potato Pancakes. Potatoes stored well and were inexpensive, making them a staple. These potato pancakes use leftover mashed potatoes, helping families avoid waste.
- Fried Cornmeal Mush. Known for its versatility, you can enjoy items made with cornmeal for any meal. Fried cornmeal mush was common on the breakfast table during the depression.
- Rice Pudding. Here’s a great recipe to use up leftover rice. Ingredients: ¼ to ½ bowlful of cooked rice, warm. Milk to taste. A small dab of butter. A bit of sugar or honey to taste.
- Ham Hocks & Beans. You can let a pot of this simmer most of the day for a delicious, inexpensive meal. The beans don’t need presoaked when prepared this way.
- Chipped Beef over Toast. Also known as s**t on a shingle, this meal is filling and simple. If you don’t have dried beef, substitute ground venison, hamburger, or any other available meat.
- Creamed Peas over Mashed Potatoes. Here’s a filling meatless meal using potato water instead of milk in the gravy. This water has many uses and is nutritious.
- Simple Fish Chowder. During the depression, many people fished regularly. The fish they caught varied based on their location, but they ate them all. Here’s a simple chowder you can use your fish in.
- Stretched Scrambled Eggs. Here’s a simple way to stretch eggs without sacrificing flavor. Ingredients: 6 eggs, beaten. ¼ cup flour. 1/3 cup water. Salt and pepper.
- Garbage Soup. Garbage soup helped reduce waste during the Great Depression. Each batch was different, depending on what you ate during the week. It’s a great strategy to help you get the most out of your food.
- Foraged Salad. Take time to learn what wilds around you are edible, and where you can find some without pesticides. Foraging gives you nutritious food for free.

- The Poorman’s Feast. I want to start off this recipe list with one of my favorite chefs on YouTube: 94-year old Clara who grew up during the Great Depression.
- Meat And Potato Patties. We were definitely a meat and potatoes kind of family when I was growing up, so this meal looks absolutely delicious to me. Meat rations were pretty low per family in the 30s, so to add a little more sustenance, potatoes were mixed in to create this dinner.
- Depression-Era Potato Soup. This IS your grandma’s potato soup. Simple, hardy, and tasty, potatoes are a huge staple in Great Depression-era cooking and this soup is a prime example.
- Creamed Chipped Beef. Also lovingly known as sh*t on a shingle, creamed chipped beef is typically served on a piece of toast, aka, the shingle. This was a popular recipe in the 30s because the beef offered some protein while the bechamel sauce provided filling carbohydrates.
- 1930s Einkorn Chocolate Cake. Milk and eggs are perishable, and unless you lived on a farm, they probably weren’t a huge staple in your depression-era kitchen.
- Dandelion Salad. One of the most frugal ways to eat is to forage off your land. It seems like dandelions are just about everywhere and during the depression, those “weeds” were free sustenance waiting to be picked.
- The Poor Man’s Meal. Comprised mainly of potatoes and hot dogs, the poor man’s meal is a simple dish that’s super filling and comes together quickly. Hot dogs will offer a little bit of protein while the potatoes fill up those hungry bellies.
- Depression-Era Meatloaf. Coming from a large family, ground beef was a big staple in our home. Meatloaf filled us up and was something we could all eat without complaints.
- Homemade Bread. Bread is cheap and can feed a crowd, and that’s basically the requirements of depression-era cooking. Related Post: How To Make Irish Soda Bread.
- Pasta Peas. Pasta dishes are so easy to whip up and this one includes just a few simple ingredients that complement each other well. Peas are inexpensive and shelf-stable, making them a good staple item in the depression-era kitchen.
