This is a take on Key Lime Cake III, but after some experimenting, I find this recipe is moister, more flavorful, and easier to make.

- 1 package lemon cake mix , 15.25 ounce
- 0.5 packages cream cheese , 8 ounce
- 1 package lime-flavored gelatin mix , 3 ounce
- 0.75 cups limeade

- 4 large eggs
- 0.5 medium lime , zested and juiced

Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 45 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool to room temperature, 30 minutes to 1 hour.

Green Tomato Mincemeat
This makes about 30 pints of mincemeat. Have on hand 30 (1-pint) canning jars with brand-new rings and lids. Reusing old lids is not recommended. A delicious way to use green tomatoes. The recipe came from my grandfather, and our family has been making it forever. Use straight from the jar for pies, cookies, muffins, or cake.
Whole Wheat and Steel-Cut Oats Bread - A Long-Fermentation Bread
This is a no-knead bread recipe that I put together using ideas from other recipes and my own variations. During the long fermentation period, the grains soften and swell to give the bread a wholesome and satisfying flavor and texture. It has a chewy crust that is crispy when toasted and a soft crumb. This bread is more convenient because it can be mixed one day and baked the next day when you have time. The long fermentation releases the nutrients of the grain and enhances the flavor of the bread.
