I, too, use the recipe example...so I can't give much help with a different
approach.
For limiting reactants, I use the "sandwhich" example. If it takes 2 pieces
of bread, 2 piece of cheese and 3 pieces of meat to have a sandwhich, how many
sandwiches can you make if you have...(and then give a bunch of examples). Or
you can use the brat example (brats come in packages of 5, hot dog buns in
packages of 8...what's the limiting reactant). Those two have cleared up
limiting reactants for most any student I've explained them to...but that's
assuming you've already worked through the "muck" of stoichioemtry to begin
with.
Maybe somebody will have another idea.
