Grandma June's Oatmeal Patties
This is an old recipe that I'm pretty sure my mother (June Perg Floyd) invented. Happy Mother's Day, mom!
[Grandma June's] Oatmeal Patties 1 cup uncooked oats 1 cup crumbs (bread or cracker or another cup of oats) 1 cup milk 2 Tablespoons soysauce 1 tsp salt Garlic Beat 2 eggs; add milk & soy-sauce mix and let sit a few minutes to soak up a little of liquid. Drop by spoonful into hot greased skillet. Can serve with gravy or a can of mushroom or tomato soup
I will reformat this - the above is as close a representation as I can get of whats on the stained warped old 3x5 card I have sitting on the laptop ;)
And as a reminder, this recipe is only one of those that may be found in the forthcoming earth food’s serial cooking for humans,
[and a couple final notes from my personal experience: use peanut, corn, or olive oil to cook them in - or walnut oil, if you can get it; also, (speaking of nuts) chopped pecans go great in this, iirc]

Pizza Dough
Basic Pizza Dough Recipe
[makes 2 12" crusts]
1 cup lukewarm water plus extra as needed
1/4 cup olive oil plus extra for oiling bowl
1-1/2 teaspoons honey or sugar
1 package dry yeast (2-1/4 teaspoons)
3 cups unbleached all purpose flour, plus extra as needed
1-1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
DIRECTIONS:
1. If your kitchen is cool, preheat oven to 150 degrees or the lowest
setting.
2. Pour the flour into the work bowl of a large food processor or
stand mixer.
3. Sprinkle the oil, sugar, and yeast over the water and pulse the
mixer several times until mixed.
4. Add the flour and salt and process until the mixture comes
together.
5. The dough should be soft and slightly sticky. (If it is too
sticky, add flour 1 tablespoon at a time, and pulse until smooth.
If it is too stiff, add water one tablespoon at a time, and pulse
until smooth.)
6. Turn the dough onto a slightly floured work surface; knead by hand
a few minutes to form a smooth, round ball.
7. Put the dough in an oiled, clean bowl, turn it over a few times to
coat with oil, drizzle a little oil over the top, and cover tightly
with plastic wrap.
8. Place in a warm spot or turn off the oven and stick it in there.
9. Let rise until the dough has doubled in size, about 15 minutes in
the oven, or 1 hour in the warm spot.
10. Once the dough has risen, punch it down and knead on a lightly
floured surface for 1 to 2 minutes, until smooth.
11. Divide dough into two equal-sized balls and proceed with pizza
making.
