Beef and Cheese Treats
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups of hot water or meat juices
- 1 cup oatmeal, uncooked
- 4 ounces grated cheese, any variety
- 1/4 cup cooked ground beef, strained well
- 1 whole egg, beaten
- 1 cup wheat germ
- 1/4 cup margarine
- 1/2 cup dry milk
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup cornmeal
- 3 cups wheat flour
In large bowl pour hot water over oatmeal and margarine: let stand for 5 minutes. Stir in powdered milk, strained meat, grated cheese, salt and egg. Add cornmeal and wheat germ. Mix well. Add flour, 1/3 cup at a time, mixing well after each addition. Knead 3 or 4 minutes, adding more flour if necessary to make a very stiff dough. Pat or roll dough to 1/2 inch thickness. If the dough is sticky, add a little more flour. Cut into shapes and place on a lightly greased baking sheet. Bake for 1 hour at 300 degrees. Turn off heat and leave in oven for 1 1/2 hours or longer. Makes approximately 2 1/4 pounds.
