Ingredients

Instructions
Prepare the Protein:
- Heat a skillet over medium heat and add the ground chicken or turkey. Cook until fully browned, breaking it into small pieces as it cooks. Drain any excess fat if needed.
Cook the Carbs:
- While the protein is cooking, prepare your carbohydrate source. If using sweet potatoes, peel and chop them into small cubes, then boil until soft. For brown rice, follow package instructions.
Chop the Veggies:
- Finely chop your chosen vegetables. Dogs don’t chew like we do, so smaller pieces are easier for them to digest.
Combine Everything:
- In a large bowl, mix the cooked protein, carbs, and veggies. Stir in the olive oil or fish oil for healthy fats.
Add Calcium:
- Sprinkle in the ground eggshell powder or calcium supplement. This step is crucial for ensuring your dog gets enough Calcium for strong bones and teeth.
Cool and Serve:
- Let the mixture cool completely before serving. You can store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
