I have about a dozen fresh limes. What can I use them for other than to add to beverages? I am going on vacation in one week and will not be returning for 3 weeks. I don't think the limes will hold up until then.
Thanks in advance for any help.

Couldn't be easier
Combine corn with milk, powdered bouillon, butter, salt, pepper, garlic powder and onion powder to taste. You can also add any herbs you like, dried or fresh.
Pulverize in blender or with wand till almost all the corn is suspended in the milk.
Combine 1 rounded Tbsp. flour with enough of the corn liquid to make it pourable. Set this aside.
Heat the corn/milk mixture. When it begins to simmer, slowly add the flour slurry, stirring until it is as thick as you want it.
Pour into bowls, top with anything you like (pat of butter? parsley? cracked peppercorns? Caraway seeds? Croutons? etc.) Enjoy!
Makes about 4 servings

This was always my Mom's favorite quick supper. She was a teacher who often didn't have alot of time after school to plan a meal for the five of us. We all loved it! It is a quick and easy supper for 4-5 people. It requires only 4 ingredients and they are staples that almost everyone always has on hand. It "seasons" itself and really does taste like pizza. Serve with a tossed salad for a healthy full meal!
