Here’s a good snack for those of you who used to (or still do) eat
_CornNuts_…

GARBANZO NUTS
————–
5 cups cooked garbanzo beans
1 TBS. onion powder (or to taste)
1 TBS. garlic powder (ditto)
Any other seasonings you may want…

* Place the beans in a single layer on a nonstick baking pan. While
still damp, sprinkle the beans with the seasonings. Bake in a 350 deg.
oven for ~45 minutes, or until the beans are quite dry and browned.
You’ll need to loosen the beans from the pan with a spatula periodically
during the baking period and turn them a few times.
This makes over 5 cups.

BUTTER BEANS WITH MINT AND TOMATOES
———————————–

In Greece, this is made with 1/4 pint of olive oil ! Whilst the taste does
suffer very slightly with the ommission of the oil, I find the addition of a
very strongly flavoured vegetable stock (1/4 pint) redresses the balance well.

INGREDIENTS

1 lb of cooked butter beans 3 large onions, finely chopped
2 cloves of garlic, crushed 1/4 pint of strong veg. stock
1 x 14 oz can of tomatoes 2 tblsp fresh mint or 1 dried

METHOD

Saute onions and garlic in a little of the stock until starting to soften. Add
the tomatoes and the cooked beans and the mint. Season to taste. Simmer gently,
covered, for about 20 minutes to allow the flavours to blend.

I like this as a supper dish with wholemeal bread rolls and a green salad.

PLEASE….don’t try feeding this to any greek people !

Title: Cheese Puff Muffins
Categories: Muffins
Yield: 1 servings

1 c Shortening *
2 c Boiling water
1 c Sifted flour
1 ts Baking powder **
1 ts Salt
1/8 ts Cayenne
=( i never use it)
1 c Grated cheese
= (it calls for american
=i use cheddar)
4 Eggs

* (I use margarine or butter) **request RUMFORD BAKING
POWDER)Heat shortening and water to boiling point. Sift
flour, baking powder, salt and cayenne together and pour
into liquid mixture. Stir vigorously until the mixture
clings together in a mass and leaves the sides of the pan.
Beat in the cheese. Drop in unbeaten eggs one at a time,
beating after each addition until mixture is smooth. Drop
by teaspoons onto a greased (or sprayed)baking sheet. Bake
in a moderate oven 375 – 35 minutes.JM.

After baking these many times I have found that they are
wonderful having been baked only 30 mins. They have a more
soft cheesey taste-but are wonderful browned also.
Wonderful with tomatoe or cheese soup.
IRA DENNIS (LVFG53A). These are from my Grandmother’s old
RUMFORD BAKING POWDER cookbook. They were called Cheese
Puff Muffins-but are really more of a cheese biscuit.
