A boost for better breakfasts: Canned soup

From the Corsicana Daily Sun (Texas) November 12, 1975

A fitting breakfast food is eggs: little compact containers of high-quality protein, vitamins and minerals. And, an “eggs-cellent” way to serve them is Western-Style Campbelled Eggs.

Condensed Cream of Mushroom Soup turns eggs into a tempting recipe no sleepyhead can resist. Whole kernel corn and green pepper strips are eye-opening additions. A sunny sprinkling of Cheddar cheese is the crowning glory.
