I've made these several times and they come out quite hard... think that's because they dry out just sitting for a couple hours. One of the tips I found when a recipe calls for meat juices, I add a jar of baby food to the hot water (just check for onions) most of the plain chicken or beef I get are fine.
Cheese Nuggets
Servings: 10
1 cup Uncooked Oatmeal
1 1/2 cup Hot Water or Meat Juices
4 oz (1 cup) Grated Cheese
1 Egg, Beaten
1 cup Wheat Germ
1/4 cup Margarine
1/2 cup Powdered Milk
1/4 tbsp Salt
1 cup Cornmeal
3 cup Whole Wheat Flour
In large bowl pour hot water over oatmeal and margarine: let stand for 5 minutes.
Stir in powdered milk, 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. Cut into bone shaped biscuits and place
on a 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.
