If you have a picky dog that likes a bougie food topper, here is a budget version. I usually use 1/2 the liver per batch & freeze the rest. The oats will make 4-5 batches. It makes about 4-5 weeks of a food topper. My dog gets a few spoon fulls on his kibble twice a day.
1. Begin by cooking your choice of ground meatâturkey, chicken, beef, or lamb. I typically opt for whatever is on sale. Cook the meat partially, breaking it up into smaller pieces as it browns.
2. While the meat is cooking, chop 3 sweet potatoes into bite-sized pieces. Once the meat is lightly cooked, add the sweet potatoes to the mix.
3. Next, add in frozen vegetables. Top everything with liver, beef or chicken.
4. Pour enough water into the pot to cover the ingredients, then bring it to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat and let it simmer until the sweet potatoes are soft and the meat is fully cooked.
5. Once everything is cooked, use a meat tenderizer or a potato masher to mash the ingredients together until you achieve your desired consistency.
6. Stir in some quick oats to absorb any excess moisture.
7. Allow the mixture to cool in the refrigerator. Once cooled, portion and freeze.

Do you pull out of the freezer and throw it in the bowl frozen? Or defrost each portion?

whatever you feed your dog try and look up the vitamin/mineral requirements they have. You can buy just powdered vitamins to mix in, I looked into making my dogs food once. For example sometimes people add eggshells because they need more calcium

Just make sure theyâre getting all vitamins etc. Spinach? Fish oil?

I do 6.5 lbs butterball ground turkey from Costco ($22) + 2.5 lbs frozen blueberries ($7) + 1 lb frozen chopped spinach ($2) + 10 cups dry rice ($5). Makes about 50 cups of food, I have 6 dogs so I go through that in about 3-4 days, splitting 1 cup per meal with another cup of kibble, 2 meals a day, for 2 shepherds/2 labs/2 Pyrs.
I find the blueberry and spinach are great fiber to keep them regular, they gobble up the turkey, and the dark blue hue of the blueberry in their normal poop makes it really easy to spot if theyâve gotten into something they shouldnât have. This is a good alternative though, gonna try it out for a special occasion!
