30 minute meal with Chef Lola

Nothing makes my mouth water then down home cooking . So Rachel Rae if you ever need a partner in the kitchen give me a woof! Today me and mom are getting the pots and pans dirty to make some yummy pot roast that the whole family will enjoy. I must have died and gone to heaven to be able to call this dog food is a dream. Not to mention it is made with a fresh & natural ingredients straight from the garden & the butcher. My favorite being my moms famous Lamb Roast Stew, Aaaah the power of the Crock Pot, just set it and forget it!

Then for dessert oven baked Peanut Butter & Honey biscuits (don’t tell my mom but baking is not her specialty). This is our time trying out this ingredient so if all else fails we can rely on
Ma Snax Wheat Free Peanut Butter & Honey Biscuits for back up! The best part is that my mom promises me that I get to lick the batter bowl with the condition that I do the dishes. Now that I can can handle. It is so important for my parents and I to know what is going in our mouth and belly, so what better way to know for sure then to get in the kitchen.


Crock Pot Vegetable Lamb Stew

Ingredients

1 lb ground lamb (or beef)
1 1/2 cups brown rice
2 stalks broccoli
2 or 3 medium potatoes, cubed
3 medium carrots
1 sheet kombu sea kelp

Instructions

• Brown the lamb in a pan. Add cubed potatoes.
• Cut broccoli and carrots into small pieces and toss into the pot with everything else. Add hot water to cover and a little pepper to taste.
• Set your crock pot timer for 6-8 hours. When you come back, it will be your dog’s dinnertime and more than likely, the stew will smell so good you’ll be tempted to have some too.! Be sure to cool stew before serving.

When it comes to finding your beloved Fido there are a lot of all-natural, easy fun and delicious recipes out there. There are some wonderful organic doggy cook books and online all natural recipes that you can sniff out & educate you on the art of cooking for your furry friend.

I must say I have truly seen an improvement in my own health and my coat is so shiny that even a show dog would envy. Did you know that whole, raw, free-range eggs given three times a week are great for a dog's skin and coat. Also that Mackerel or sardines in soy oil added to dog food once a week provide omega 3 fatty acids and contribute to a shiny coat.

A good hearty meal always make a not so good day better!

Let me leave you with some "Barking Words of Wisdom":

1. But if your and your dog love to eat but not a fan of cooking there are some wonderful organic dog foods & treats on the shelves. Just always read the labels to make sure it does not contain artificial, poor quality ingredients, by products (i.e from left over snout of a pig), artificial colors and preservatives. Like humans, its important to find the correct balance of protein, chomp-hydrates, and pegetables.

2. Always consult your veterinarian for dietary information specific to your dog’s needs.

3. Don’t feed your dog bones because it can get stuck in your dogs digestive tract or he or she could choke.

4. Some foods are poisonous to dogs and should be avoided at all cost: chocolate, avocados, mushrooms, macadamia nuts, grapes, raisins, onions and garlic

Barkingly yours,
