This is a recipe from one of my cousins. As she says, she had been making it for seven years when she sent me this recipe a few years ago. She also says that she changes it up from time to time.
This will feed approx 2 /25lb dogs for 8 days
8 lbs chicken dark and light mixed
5 lg sweet potatoes
1 cp dried lentils ground
1T flax seed ground
2 hand fulls of spinach or parsley
1lg bag frozen green beans (My dogs only like French Cut
)
1 lg bag frozen peas
Second lg bag of peas or peas and carrots Or 4 lg carrots
All meat can be ground first in processor or 2 lbs with greens and carrots in processor My dogs like chunks so it has evolved.
Bake before starting or night before Sweet Potatoes for 45 min @ 400 degrees. Turn off oven let sit.
Grind lentils and flax in coffee grinder.
Add water to bottom of lg frying pan with lid. Place ground lentils and flax in water. Low heat.
Cover lg pot water, frozen vegetables, and 6 lbs chicken, boil
In food processor grind 2 lbs chicken and greens / fresh carrots if using.
Add processed mixture to lentils and flax.
Add more water if needed.
Medium heat, cover cook until meat is finished. Stir often. 10-20 min.
On counter I have plastic containers ready Some are meal size, some are halves for snacks Approx 12 sandwich size 4-6 smaller
Twice a day I split one for both dogs.
Leave 6 in fridge, the rest in freezer.
Peel and Chop Sweet potatoes
Approx 1/2 cup lentil, flax, ground meat mix per serving
Portion out frozen vegetables until gone.
Cut boiled chicken into small pieces until gone
I have been doing this for about 7 years for Syd. Takes about an hour a week.
