Doing a recipe I haven’t cooked for years today - Delia’s Cincinnati Beef Chili. It’s served with 5 accompaniments - chopped red onion, salty crackers, soured cream, beans and grated cheese. I have slightly changed the recipe plus will replace crackers with some flat breads. Very easy and slow cooks in about 4 hours - ideal for a rainy day.
MY neighbour gave me a bag of clementines, thinking I wouldn't want to eat all of them I googled clementine cake and came across a Nigella recipe. I was dubious about simmering clementines for 2 hours, but it's a really delicious cake and keeps perfectly for several days. Just 4 ingredients - clementines, eggs, ground almonds and sugar. So if you have a big enough slice you get 1 of your 5 a day for fruit and another for nuts it's a win all round cake!

Knowledge is knowing that a tomato is a fruit. Wisdom is not putting it in a fruit salad.
I'll be making another very soon, it is very good. Bread baking days are mondays and thursdays for me, usually sourdough with poppy seeds and a crust like titanium

I love orange and almond cake but haven't tried it with clementines.
Currently making marmalade with a mix of navel oranges and pomelos, the only ones I could find with untreated skins. I did find "sour" oranges in just one SM here but they'd been treated for longer keeping. Too stupid for words.
I like the sound of your beef chili AR but I too would replace the crackers with something more palatable.

Nice marmalade @Obelixx can make marmalade with ordinary oranges and lemons. Or could do three fruit marmalade with oranges, lemons and grapefruit. Never thought of the wax that's on them.
I like my wholemeal bread to be really dense. I make my own but I prefer cranks. My husband calls it prison bread. I like to cut it fairly thin not lacy. Then I toast it and let it go almost ( almost is vital) cold. Then butter and tangerine and orange marmalade - food of the goddesses😋 Not the most complicated recipe.
