Chipped Beef on Toast Aka Sos

"This is a recipe my father taught my mother. He learned how to make it while in the army - WWII! I watched how they made it and have used it as a comfort food since childhood. This is NOT a recipe for those who are counting calories, watching their cholesterol, or worried about carbs! CAUTION: do NOT add any salt."

I've done leaded glass work(stained glass), which I love; am working on counted cross stitch; and am willing to try any craft, at least once! I've also worked for a major insurance company as a case analyst.
