My mother's recipe, likely adapted from Somewhere On The Internet
===

Start your oven preheating to 325 degrees Fahrenheit.

In a large dutch oven, or other oven-safe pot (must be able to hold at least 13 cups with room to stir without spilling):

Heat low a mixture of:
- 1/2 cup oil (canola or safflower)
- 1/2 cup of honey
- 1 tablespoon of vanilla

Continue to heat and alternate adding + stirring in:
- 1 cup wheat germ
- 1 cup unsweetened coconut flakes
- 1 cup sesame seeds
- 1 cup chia seeds
- 1 cup flax seeds
- 1/2 cup sunflower seeds
- 1/2 cup cashews
- 7 cups oats

Put into the oven for fifteen minutes; pull out and stir; put back into the oven for another 15 minutes, etc. Continue to cycle for 45-60 minutes, or until well browned but not burnt.

Allow to thoroughly cool. Store in glass. (I usually end up with multiple jars.) 1/2 cup of the result with milk and some fresh fruit is a pretty great breakfast.

Lost Recipe :*(

I've been collecting the Better Homes and Gardens Christmas Cookie magazine since the early 1980's. Got my favorite cookie recipe from it.  Sadly, due to a computer crash, I lost the recipe and haven't been able to locate it again.  It was a shortbread type crust that was wrapped around a 1/2 tsp or so of honey macerated dried fruit and nuts.  Then the whole cookie was rolled in coconut and nuts and baked.  I think they were called Honey Nuggets.  If any one happens to have this recipe I would be eternally grateful for a copy.

UPDATE:  After countless hours of searching I've been unable to locate this recipe so I came up with my own version.

Pine Nuts make these a special occasion cookie.  For everyday use pecans.  But what ever you use they are delicious.

This recipe began as the Honey and Five Spice Lamb from the Women's Weekly Modern Asian cookbook. Personally I've liked it better with beef, and chicken was delicious; and in fact it wouldn't require meat at all (perhaps halve the sauce/marinade if going vego, unless Tofu is involved).

Accessibility/dietary notes )

Recipe this way )

Feeds 4, or thereabouts, depending on how much stuff you put in it. Vegetables can be swapped for... other vegetables.

Note: measurements are in Australian measures; tablespoons are 20ml but I don't imagine it makes all that much difference in this dish.

 So, I'm bored out of my mind for various reasons, and go on a journey of discovery through our less-used cabinets. What do I find? An almost empty, still good bag of cornmeal that I haven't touched in far too long.

Due to lack of cheese to make jalapeno cornbread, I settled for cornmeal pancakes!

Successful experiment below... )

Last seen here, a recipe for chocolate/berry goat's cheesecake. This is the actual as-made recipe tonight, a bit tweaked from the last version. I cannot declare it a total success yet as it's still sitting in the oven but the skewer came out pretty clean and the top felt right, so I do think it came out right.

Follow the yellow brick cut, for recipe: )

Alternatively, you could use 2 oz. unsweetened baking chocolate, rather than the cocoa/oil, or even semi-sweet chocolate chips.

Next time, I will probably up the lemon juice to 1 tbsp. but overall, this is the best consistency I've gotten yet! This has been an ongoing experiment. :D

ETA: Oh, I forgot to mention a few things. This recipe is for a 6" springform pan. Also, you could substitute just about any berry or berry combination you like, and you can leave either the chocolate or preserves out -- they do add some volume, but not enough to matter too much.
