Do you have a recipe for a goodi

Do you have a recipe for a goodie you would like to share with me?

Email me & I'll be happy to post it here for other doggies to see :)

KIM'S BIRTHDAY CAKE

Meat (preferably minced meat for dogs)

Rice

Vegetables according to dog’s taste

Pedigree meat sachet

Goodie& treats for garnishing

Cook the meat & vegetables (amount according to dog’s size). When the meat is ready blend the vegetables & add rice.

If you use minced meat put equal amount of meat & rice, if you decide to use finely chopped meat it is better to put more rice.

Rice should be cooked thoroughly until it becomes soft (almost like porridge). Put the mixture into a bowl, press down & leave it to cool.

When cooled down tip it on to the plate. Rice should hold the shape of the bowl.

To garnish the cake I used Pedigree sachet for the icing & doggy treats on the top & sides of the cake.

For safety reasons I removed the candle before serving.

1lb beef liver

1 egg

Stir in flour a bit at a time, until you have a thick pourable mixture. Spread into a greased 8x8 pan, bake until dry approx 30 min.

Cut with small doughnut cutter. Re-roll scraps and repeat. Arrange on a shallow baking dish or on a sheet of parchment paper in a single layer.

Cook on highest power10 minutes or until firm. Let cool until hardened. Store in covered container in refrigerator.

DRY MEAT SNACK

1 flank steak (about 1 1/2 - 2 pounds)

1/4 cup soy sauce (With lowest salt contain)

2 teaspoons honey

Preheat oven to 150°C or lowest possible setting. Slice the steak, along the grain, into thin strips about the width of thick sliced bacon.

Then cut in half, along the grain - they should be about 1cm thick. Then cut in half again, across the grain.

Combine the remaining ingredients in a medium-sized bowl and mix well. Add the meat and toss until well coated. Marinate the meat about an hour.

Cover two cookie sheets with aluminum foil and place the meat strips in a single layer without touching.

Bake for about 7 hours until the meat is dry like jerky and dark in colour. Store in an airtight container in the fridge or freeze for longer storage.

BEEF HEART

Cooking Time: 30 minutes, makes 2 servings

1 cup white rice

1/4 cup breadcrumbs

2 tablespoons sunflower oil

1 cup water

1/2 cup finely grated carrot

In a small saucepan, combine the hearts and enough water to cover. Bring to a boil and cook on over medium heat for 17 minutes.

While the hearts are boiling, cook the rice. Drain the hearts and chop into small pieces. Transfer the pieces to a medium bowl.

Add remaining ingredients and mix well. Allow to cool before serving.

CHICKEN & RICE

Rice

Chicken breasts or a whole chicken

Vegetables – frozen or fresh

Cook the chicken meat & vegetables together & meanwhile make rice. If you make whole chicken take the meat off the bones.

Mix the meat with rice & vegetables. Serve cool. Keep in an airtight container in the fridge.

This is a recipe for fussy dogs that don’t like vegetables. They will definitely love it boiled in a meat broth.

You can make rice instead of noodles.
