1/2 cup butter (one stick)
1/2 shortening (very important do not add just butter)
1 cup brown sugar
2 eggs beaten
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 teaspoon molasses
1/2 cup + 2 tablespoons
1 teaspoon salt
3 cup oatmeal, old fashion
1 cup bran flakes
1 teaspoon baking soda 1/2 cup golden raisin (optional)
1/2 cup finely chopped walnuts
1 cup chocolate chips
1 tablespoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon ginger
Mix flour, salt and baking soda, add oats, raisins, nuts and spices. Beat Butter and shortening together until creamed. Add sugar mix until creamed, add eggs, vanilla and molasses mix well. Combind with flour mixture. Bake at 350 for 10-12 minutes.
I only changed a few ingredients instead of all shortening I did half butter and half shortening and added the chocolate chips otherwise this is his recipe.

Creamy orzo with broccoli, sun-dried tomatos and shrimp
1/2 of a onion finely chopped
4 garlic clovers, pressed
olive oil for the pan, 3-4 teaspoons
1 1/2 cups uncooked orzo pasta
3 1/4 cups chicken broth (I love Kitchen Basics)
3/4 cup white wine and a glass for yourself
5-6 sun-dried tomatoes, more if you like
4 cup frozen broccoli, put in microwave for 2 minutes to warm
1/2 cup to 1 cup Parmesan cheese, to your liking
6 oz of mascarpone cheese
1 lb shrimp
Lemon zest from a 1/2 lemon
Lemon juice from a 1/2 lemon
Chopped fresh parsley
Heat oil in a 12 in skillet over medium heat and saute onion till soft about 5 minutes, add garlic and stir for 1 minute. Do not let the garlic brown. Stir in orzo, chicken broth, and wine. Cook for about 15 min on a simmer until almost all liquid is absorbed and orzo in tender. Add shrimp, cook for 5 more minutes, add a little chicken broth if needed. Heat off stir in lemon zest, lemon juice, tomatoes and broccoli, add cheeses, mix well and let stand for 5 minutes. Reheat slowly till warm. Sever with a salad. Complete meal in 1 hour.
This would also be easy to do as a veggie meal. Use Vegetable Broth, instead on Chicken Broth. You could also add mushrooms, asparagus, or squash. Whatever is in season and whatever you have time for.
