Ole' Dip
For the record, I genrally like healthy recipes. I like the stuff I can use fresh, natural, organic type ingredients in. With that said, some of the yuck food I know I should give up just finds away into my kitchen. This recipe is a favorite of my college age niece. She got it from a dear friend of our's who lost her battle with cancer last year. I can't make it without think of Donna and smiling. this one is for you Lauren and Donna!
Ole' dip:
Ingredients:
One package of cream cheese...softened
One can of store bought chili...NO BEANS-I am not sure why...I LOVE beans in my chili!
One full package of shredded cheddar or mexican style cheese.
In a shallow dish, I use a pie pan, spread softened cream cheese on the bottom covering completely.
Evenly disperse can of chili over the cream cheese and then top with cheese. Microwave on high for 2-3 minutes until the cheese is melted completely. Feel free to add diced tomatoes or green onions on top after cooking. Serve with chips. My favorite with this dish are Frito Scoops. Mmmmm...Enjoy!!!!

Simple Wheat Bread
Yield :4 loaves
Ingredients:
Thanks so much to my dear friend Cathy who shared this wonderful recipe with me.
Ingredients:
- 4 cups of water (microwaved 1:30 in the summer/ 2 minutes in the winter)
- 1 TBS sea salt
- 1/2 c honey
- 2/3 c canola oil
- 12 cups of flour (mill approx. 8 cups of wheat berries)
- 2 TBS of fast acting yeast
- Preheat oven to 350'
- Blend first four ingredients together and set aside. In a seperate bowl, add 6 cups of flour. Then add yeast. Now add 6 more cups of flour. No pour one cup at a time of the liquad mixture into the dry ingredients. Knead well and then continue the process until all liquad is added. Knead dough (I do mine on the counter, you may use a large mixer with a dough attachment) for approx. 10 minutes.
- Let dough rest for 10 minutes.
- Divide into four sections. Roll out each section into a rectangle. Fold dough into 3rds (like a letter) and place seam side down in your pan. Tuck the ends under.
- Set aside and cover with a flour cloth and allow to rise for 20-30 minutes.
- Bake at 350' for 25-30 minutes.
