Here is my Granola recipe. I found it in a La Leche League news letter in 1975. It was sent in by Amy(: So I have been making it for 33 years(oh dear).

Simple Granola

1/2 c oil
1/2 c honey
1/4 c b sugar
1T vanilla
Heat these in a large pan for 3 or 4 mins on a boil. I use a roasting pan.

Remove from the heat and add
7c rolled oats
1c wheat germ
1/2t salt
1/2c almonds
1/2 coconut
Other things I add(it just depends what I have on hand)sunflower seeds,sesame seeds, rice crispies(if am a little short on oats). Add what ever you like. I put the raisins & cranraisins in when the granola is cooling.

I bake it in A 350' oven. Stir every 10/15mins until it is light brown. Browns fast.
When cool store in air tight containers.

MMMMMMmmmmmmmm eat by the hand full~~anytime. Real good with yogurt and fruit.

Easy cheese ball.

2 8oz. cream cheese
1 package of garden onions (chopped, include some of the greens)
3 pkgs. budding ham (chopped)

Mix the cream cheese till soft, and onions and 2 pkgs of chopped ham. Shape in ball on serving plate-use last bag of ham and press small pieces to cover the cheese ball.It looks better for a formal party.
Otherwise just leave in a bowl and serve.

Here's my favorite for Hashbrown casserole. Leave the potatoes in the fridge overnight to thaw before using.

Hashbrown Casserole

1 (2 lb) package of frozen hashbrowns (shredded or cubed)
1/2 cup chopped vidalia onion plus a little butter to saute in
1/4 cup (4 tablespoons) butter, melted
1 (8 oz.) container sour cream
1 (10.75 oz) can condensed cream of chicken soup (don't add water)
2 cups shredded cheddar cheese (this is one package)
1 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp black pepper

Topping:
Another 2 to 4 tablespoons butter, melted
1 1/2 cups corn flakes
1/2 cup canned fried onions (like you use for green bean casserole)

Thaw the potatoes. Saute the onions in a little butter (not the 1/4 cup) until soft. Mix all of the first 8 ingredents together in a bowl. Spread this into a 9x13 pan.

Mix the cornflakes and melted butter together. Spread over the potato mixture. Top with the fried onions.

Bake, covered, at 350F for 40 minutes.
Yummy!

Here's something to use up all the green tomatoes at the end of the year...

Sweet Relish
20 medium green tomatoes
8 apples
6 green or red peppers (red makes it look nice)
8 onions
Grind all of the above

In a big pot, mix following
1 quart vinegar
5 cups of sugar
1/2 tablespoon cinnamon
1 tablespoon pepper
3 tablespoons salt
Heat and bring to a boil and then add all of the 1st ingredients...Simmer for 30 minutes and then jar...I usually try to drain it so you don't end up with alot of liquid in the jar....
Makes the house smell soooo good while cooking and is very yummy on burgers etc.
