Doggy Treats for all.......Banana Sweet Potato


was reading about some more doggie treat recalls.. UGH.... so i've decided i should just make doggie treats, homemade goodness... at least i know what the ingredients are, nothing 'foreign' abet a few sweet potato skins ;)

today i used up the leftover brown rice and made



Banana Sweet Potato

2 cups brown rice, cooked
1 carrot
1 large swiss chard leaf
1 medium sized sweet potato
1 duck egg( any kind of egg will do)
1 tbs nutritional yeast
3 tbs of peanut butter
1 banana(mashed)
1 tsp baking powder
Cook rice, steam and mash carrot, swiss chard and sweet potato
add egg, yeast, peanut butter, banana and baking powder
add enough whole wheat flour to make batter for drop cookies
bake 10 mins 350 for softer cookies (like human drop cookies)
put cookies back in oven after all are cooked.. oven 'bake' at 250 for 1/2 hr... will dry them out a bit..
store in tight container or freeze

and your wondering how the 'children' liked them.. well Sampson thought they were good enough to bother trying to steal, and Dora wasn't so sure... next time i think i'll leave out the swiss chard.. or put in less, or even a less 'flavourful' green..
in case your wondering... i swear Sampson is a vegetarian doggie... he LOVES most veggies and most fruits...
