So I don't
have to keep repeating them - here are my favorite recipes - cheap
and easy!
Tuna Fudge
2 6oz cans tuna OR 1 14 oz can
salmon (do not drain either)
1 1/2 cup whole wheat flour (or spelt flour)
1 Tbsp garlic powder or granulated garlic
2 eggs — lightly beaten
Grated Parmesan cheese, about 1 handful
Mix all ingredients together in food processor. Grease a 9x9
pan (I use spray canola oil).
Bake in 350 degree oven for 20 minutes
Freezes beautifully and will keep unfrozen in refrigerator for
3-4 days.
CAUTION: do not refreeze any leftovers!
Nuked Hotdogs
Use chicken or turkey hot dogs only!!!!
Take one pound of hot dogs and cut to the appropriate size for
your dog and place on a microwaveable surface as spread out as
you can.
Microwave them for about 10-15 MINUTES. Yes minutes.
The point is to take all of the moisture out of them so they
are easier and less slimy to handle. Every microwave is different
in strength, so test yours by doing about 5 minutes at a clip.
Beef Bones
1 pound ground beef
2 eggs, beaten
3 cups of spelt flour
1 cup of rolled oats (only use the stuff at the health food store)
1 cup water
In blender or food processor, mix beef and beaten eggs until
well blended.
In large bowl, combine flour and oats, then gradually mix in beef
mixture with your hands (ick!) until well blended.
Add water and stir to form a sticky dough.
Divide into 2 balls so it is easier to work with.
Knead about 2 minutes on a floured surface, adding in a little
more flour until dough isn't sticky anymore.
Roll to about 1/4" thickness.
Place on greased cookie sheet. Score with pizza cutter or knife
and bake for 1 hour at 350 degrees
Speckled treats
1 cup of canned or frozen mixed peas and carrots, drained
2-1/2 cups of spelt flour
1/2 cup powdered skim milk
1 tsp. garlic powder (I use crushed garlic)
6 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 egg, beaten
1/2 cup ice water
In blender or food processor, puree peas and carrots.
In large mixing bowl, combone flour, powdered skim milk and garlic.
Make a well in the middle and stir in the balance of the ingredients.
Divide dough into 2 balls so it is easy to work with.
Knead dough on floured surface for about 2 minutes.
Roll out to about 1/4" thickness.
Place on baking sheet covered in tin foil.
I use a pizza wheel or you can use a knife to score it into
the size pieces to suit your dog. Bake about 40 minutes at 350
degrees. If you use cookie cutters, after 15 minutes, turn the
biscuits over and cook for another 25. I found I didn't need to
do this using the slab, with scores in it method. I also
found that the dough was too wet, so I added more flour than the
recipe called for.
Peanut Butter Shortbread
(Yes I know I mention that peanut butter is toxic for dogs in
my book. Afloxin is the mold that historically is on peanuts.
Many people are allergic to this mold as well. If your dog is
allergic, use a cashew butter or other nut butter. If your dogs
are okay with peanut butter, then by all means use it.)
1 1/2 cups spelt flour
1/2 cup all purpose flour
1 Tbsp baking powder
1 cup peanut butter
3/4 c. milk
In a large mixing bowl, combine flour and baking powder.
In a small bowl, whisk peanut butter and milk until smooth ***Important
to do in a seperate bowl...it works better.
Make a well in the flour mixture and gradually stir in peanut
butter mixture until well blended.
Use hands to work dough into 2 pliable balls, the warmth from
your hands will help make the dough more workable.
Knead each dough ball about 2 minutes.
With a rolling pin, roll dough between 1/4" and 1/2"
thickness.
Cut with biscuit cutter or (just roll it out and score it into
littel tiny pieces right before baking) and place on a baking
sheet lined with foil. Bake 15 minutes at 400 degrees.... ***CAREFUL,
I found these burn easily....I watched carefully and pulled out
at 12 minutes.
Liver Brownie Recipe
1 pound of beef liver
2 cups flour (I prefer to use spelt or oat flour - wheat is a
top allergin of dogs)
1 egg
(While you are at it - make a double batch so you don't stink
up the house too often.)
Put liver in food processor and mix until it is gross .
Add
in flour and egg and stir.
Put in pan
that is WELL GREASED and bake for about 25 minutes at 350 degrees.
Cut and take out of pan while still hot. If you don't you'll end
up throwing it all away because you'll never get it out of the
pan. They cut up and freeze well.
Salmon Brownies
1 can salmon - not drained.
Stick in food processor with 3-5 cloves of garlic.
Stir
in 2-3 cups flour (I never use wheat flour - I use oat flour or
quinoi flour or spelt).
Roll into
1/4" to 1/2" layers between waxed paper. Then place
on cookie sheet, scoring lightly into little squares before baking
at 350 degrees for about 10-15 minutes.
