Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 pound beef liver
2 large eggs -- shells washed
1 cup cottage cheese, lowfat
1 1/2 cups wheat germ
3 1/4 cups whole-wheat flour

Rinse liver and cut into 1-inch chunks. Put in a 2-quart pan with 1 cup
water, and bring to a boil on high heat. Reduce heat, cover and simmer
gently until liver is no longer pink, about 5 minutes. Put liver in a
blender, saving the liquid from previous step. Break in eggs, including
shells. Whirl to puree, adding reserved liquid as needed. Scrape mixture
into bowl, adding remaining cooking liquid, cottage cheese, wheat germ
and 3 cups flour. Stir until evenly moistened. Knead until dough no
longer feels sticky, adding more flour as required. Roll out dough onto a
floured board until 1/2 inch thick. Cut dough with floured bone-shaped
cookie cutter. Bake in 300 degree oven until bones are tinged darker
brown and feel firm to touch, about 1 hour. Cool on racks. Once cool,
bones should be hard when pressed; if not, bake 10 minutes more at 300
degrees and cool.

(Makes about 4 1/2 dozen 3 1/2 inch long bones.)
