Bonnie's Sunshine Liver Brownies
The recipe makes a lot of brownies so keep any leftovers (should there be
any) in the freezer because they spoil real easy.

3 to 3 1/2 lbs of liver, beef or chicken
1 C whole wheat flour
4.25 oz jar fresh minced or crushed garlic
2 C white flour
1/2 C corn meal
1 med shaker of grated parmesan cheese
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Cover cookie sheet with foil, coat with cooking
spray, sprinkle lightly with corn meal and set aside. Process liver and
garlic in food processor or blender until it looks like milk chocolate. Pour
into large mixing bowl and blend in the rest of the ingredients. Spread
evenly onto cookie sheet (the mixture will be thick) and sprinkle lightly
with corn meal. Bake until no pink is left. I usually bake them for about 30
min for one pan and then turn the oven off but leave the brownies inside
until they are cool. Cut in pieces and be ready to be loved by your dog(s).
I have yet to meet a dog that doesn't like SLBs and I think that this is
about the greatest bait on earth... Enjoy!!!

Newf Breakfast Bars
I love this recipe because it makes a lot & it's so easy, you just throw
everything into the bowl, mix & pat onto 2 greased cookie sheets, no rolling
or cookie cutters.

12 c. oatmeal
4 c. whole wheat flour
>8 eggs
3/4 c. oil
2/3 c. honey
1/2 c. molasses
2 c. milk
1 large can solid pack pumpkin (optional)
3 to 4 mashed bananas (optional)
Preheat oven to 325. Grease 2 cookie sheets

Dump everything into a VERY large bowl. Mix this whole mess together (I use
my hands, AFTER I take my rings off, another story), pat onto greased cookie
sheets & bake at 325 for 1 hour. After 1 hour turn oven off, crack oven door
& allow cookies to cool in oven. Break into whatever size you want (mine
like LARGE).

These freeze really well. My guys love these, they sit in front of the oven
waiting.
