GRAIN-FREE BEEF DOG FOOD TREAT



Grain-Free Beef Dog Food Treat image

I found this great treat recipe on all-natural-dog-treat.com It's completely grain free making it wonderful for pets who are allergic to grains and for owners who prefer to minimize the amount of grain products their pets eat. Note: This recipe can also be a good homemade meal for your dog. Sept, 2008: I originally published this recipe as a treat recipe. Since it doesn't seem to hold together very well it's now been changed to a dog food recipe. When I get a chance to play around with it I'll see if it can be made into a treat recipe again. I would only give this to my dog in small portions as a treat or to add flavour to her regular food.

HOMEMADE GRAIN-FREE DOG FOOD



Homemade Grain-Free Dog Food image

My dog is getting older and his health has become more of a priority. I worry about how many nutrients kibble may lose through the cooking process. So, I developed this homemade dog food recipe to include all of the vitamins, minerals, and essential fatty acids that my dog needs. It took me a bit of research to figure out what foods in what proportions to use. The protein ingredients include liver and poultry (dark meat poultry is best), sunflower oil for linoleic acid, and 10 other essential amino acids that dogs must get in their diet.

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 medium carrots, peeled and chopped
2 apples - peeled, cored and chopped
¼ cup water
6 eggs
3 pounds ground chicken
6 ounces chicken livers, chopped
3 tablespoons sunflower seed oil
4 cups baby spinach leaves

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Place carrots, apples, and water into a pot. Bring to a boil; cover, reduce heat to low, and simmer until soft, 10 to 15 minutes.
  • Crack eggs and whisk together in a bowl; place eggshells onto a baking sheet.

  • Place ground chicken, chicken livers, eggs, ground eggshells, and sunflower oil into a large skillet. Heat over medium heat, mixing occasionally, until ground chicken is browned and crumbly and livers are no longer pink, 5 to 7 minutes.
  • Place spinach on top of meat mixture in the skillet and cover with a lid to steam until soft, about 5 minutes.
  • Mash softened carrots and apples using a potato masher and add to meat mixture; mix together.
