[geeks] Speaking of food, the lost art of TV dinners

[gsm at mendelson.com]

My wife asked me to reproduce the Swiss Steak TV dinner tomorrow night.

I can't find anything close to it. I've found lots of "swiss steak" dinners,
but they all seem overly complicated and much too fancy for a TV dinner.

I can find lots of copycat type sites which give you the (claimed) recipe
to anything sold in the last 20 years, but TV Dinners seem to be too
"low brow" for them. :-(

I can't even find a list of what was in them. I did find a site with a
photo of a TV dinner out of the box, as you would eat it, but they 
neglected to say which one. 

Since I've had "Good Eats" introduced to me, I even found an Alton Brown
recipe, but it is definitely too much of a good eat for a Swanson dinner.

Anyone have any ideas, or know of any references to TV dinner recipes?

Thanks,

Geoff.
