  • I never saw veg chopped liver. Who makes it? Where do you get it? What are the nutritional stats?
  • I make it. Very easy and all too delicious. Comes to about 1 point per tablespoon depending upon how much oil you use. I find it irresistable and only make it for special occasions when I can send the tempting leftovers home with someone.

    8 oz can peas (don't use fresh, trust me)
    8 oz can green beans (ditto)
    plenty of chopped onions - 2 large?
    2 hardboiled eggs
    15 walnuts
    10 crackers (I use TamTam, my grandmother's choice)
    oil
    salt & pepper

    Fry onions til nicely browned.

    Chop peas, beans, eggs, nuts & crackers and fried onions to desired consistency. Season with salt & pepper. Chill. Serve with crackers or delicious on rye bread.
