New cookies! Mom messed up and boiled all of my sweet potatoes. (😭) She usually slices some of them for chips, but instead, she threw them in the mixer with some wheat flour, an egg, and cinnamon. These are really good! I might have her make these for me more often. 😋 As #DogRoss says, there are no mistakes, only happy accidents. #dog #dogs #dogsofinstagram #beagle #beagles #bluetickbeagle #beaglestagram #beaglesofinstagram #instabeagle #beagleworld #beaglelove #beaglemania #beaglefamily #beaglelife #beaglesdaily #beaglesofig #beaglesrule #beaglelover #justbeagles #justbeagle #beagle_loveit #ilovemybeagle #dogoftheday #beagleoftheday #gourmetdog #gourmetdogfood #souschefcharlotte https://www.instagram.com/p/Bs3vBzGH1go/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=18fo9bib8j3er

New recipe! Apple Cinnamon Oatmeal Cookies. I used my base recipe of 1 cup old fashioned oats and 2 cups wheat flour mixed and added a teaspoon of cinnamon. Then I processed a whole, cored apple, then added to that one cup of hot water. Processed that until it was as blended as possible, then added it to the dry mix. It ended up being really very wet so I had to keep adding wheat flour until the dough was no longer sticky. Rolled out, cut into shapes, baked for 35 minutes at 350° and then left in the oven to dehydrate until the oven was cold. #dog #dogs #dogsofinstagram #beagle #beagles #bluetickbeagle #beaglestagram #beaglesofinstagram #instabeagle #beagleworld #beaglelove #beaglemania #beaglefamily #beaglelife #beaglesdaily #beaglesofig #beaglesrule #beaglelover #justbeagles #justbeagle #beagle_loveit #ilovemybeagle #dogoftheday #beagleoftheday #gourmetdog #gourmetdogfood #souschefcharlotte

New recipe! Doggy Breath Bites 1) Coconut Oil, melted. Turmeric. Fresh chopped mint. Fresh chopped parsley. Dog-size appropriate silicone mold. 2) Place a pinch of mint and parsley in each mold with a sprinkle of turmeric. 3) Use a dropper to carefully fill the molds with coconut oil. Place in fridge until hard. 4) Pop them out of the molds and give your pup one a day to freshen breath and sooth the stomach. #dog #dogs #dogsofinstagram #beagle #beagles #bluetickbeagle #beaglestagram #beaglesofinstagram #instabeagle #beagleworld #beaglelove #beaglemania #beaglefamily #beaglelife #beaglesdaily #beaglesofig #beaglesrule #beaglelover #justbeagles #justbeagle #beagle_loveit #ilovemybeagle #dogoftheday #beagleoftheday #gourmetdog #gourmetdogfood #souschefcharlotte

New recipe!

Chicken Jerky

This is just plain, dehydrated chicken, no seasonings, sauces, or preservatives. It's actually quite easy, it just takes a lot of patience.

I found a pack of thinly sliced breasts at the grocery store that were also lean. You want to trim the fat off of them if you can, and keep them to about 1/4 inch thick. If they're too thick still, you can try slicing them yourself, or pounding them flat. I also cut the breasts in half, making long, thin strips for smaller servings.

I lined two baking sheets with wax paper (foil or parchment works too) and placed baking racks on top to allow air flow. I placed the chicken on the racks then put them in the oven at 250°. I checked them ever hour, flipped them after two hours, and took them out at four. Then, to make sure they were truly free of fluid, I placed them in my dehydrator over night.

That's it. Nothing to it but patience and now I have a crunchy, healthy, protein packed treat Charlotte loves. ❤

We eat bananas a lot in this house, but occasionally we lose track of a couple or they ripen too fast so instead of tossing them, composting them, or turning them into banana bread, I freeze them...for one reason: Charlotte!

Banana Ice Cream

This can actually be a great idea for humans too, I have eaten it, and it’s quite good!  Freeze your overly ripened bananas without the peels for a day (sorry, this recipe takes patience).  When you take them out of the freezer, toss them into your food processor, to make this part easier, you may want to freeze them in pieces.  The processing will take a few minutes, let it run, scrape the sides of the bowl a couple of times, and just watch as the bananas turn into a consistency of soft serve ice cream...it’s that easy!  After that you can throw in a number of tasty add-ins for your pup. This one I added a spoonful each of peanut butter, raw honey, and coconut oil to five frozen medium bananas.  There’s so much you can add to this: apple or apple sauce, blueberries, raspberries, strawberries, carob chips, pumpkin, sweet potato, and unflavored yogurt or greek yogurt, and you don’t have to mix everything in the processor, push in the berries/apples/chips when you’ve filled the molds.  Use an ice cube tray if you don’t have a silicone mold. Want to share the treat with your pup? Add in stuff that’ll benefit you both but be warned, the icecream gets harder the longer it’s stored! Once you’ve poured the liquidy ice cream into their molds, place them in the freezer until hard, waited about a half a day before I did.
