Ingredients:
3 lbs. of a ground meat (Beef, chicken and Turkey, we used turkey)
1.5 cups of brown rice, cooked.
1 Tablespoon of olive oil
1 Zucchini (Shredded)
2 Carrots (Shredded)
3 cups of baby spinach, chopped.
1/2 cup of peas (frozen or canned, we chose frozen)
Directions:
1. Cook the rice according to the package and set aside.
2. Heat olive oil in a large stockpot and cook the ground meat until browned. Make sure to crumble the meat as it cooks.
3. Stir in the spinach, carrots, zucchini, peas and rice. Cook until the spinach has wilted and the whole mixture is heated thoroughly; 3-5 minutes.
4. Let the dog food cool completely and divide into baggies and freeze if you like. I served some to my dog lukewarm and she just loved it. I used little snack sized baggies and had enough dog food to last two weeks. My little pug eats 1/2 a cup of this every morning and night with her all-natural spring dog food that she absolutely loves! Better yet, this recipe didn't cost be a fortune! I did some bargain hunting and was able to find all of the ingredients on sale at my local Aldi. This batch only set me back about $15, which isn't bad at all! It's nice knowing exactly what goes into what your pet eats.
As it cooked, looks good if I do say myself!
She just loved it! I gave her a little bit before I bagged it all up!
We filled up 32 snack sized baggies, this recipe for us yielded 16 cups of dog food! Each baggie has 1/2 cup of food in it. She eats 1 cup a day :) So roughly, this recipe would cost us around $28-30 a month.
Here is the nutrition facts for this recipe :)
