7 minutes
20 minutes
This comforting classic was inspired by Cricket's favorite protein: turkey.
When she was first adopted, turkey was the one ingredient that soothed her itchy skin and helped her gain healthy weight. This recipe combines lean ground turkey with soft-cooked potatoes and tender zucchini, creating the perfect balance of protein and veggies in a simple, nourishing mash your pup with love.
Ingredients
1 lb Ground Turkey (453g or 16oz)
1 Small-Medium Potato, chopped (65g or 2.29oz)
½ Medium Zucchini, chopped (75g or 1.61oz)
1 ½ Cups of Water
2 TBSP Dog Child Essential Nutrient Mix (20g or 0.71oz)
1 TSP Ground Flaxseeds (6g or 0.21oz)
Directions
Add the ground turkey, diced potato, zucchini, and water to a pan over medium-low heat.
Cover with a lid and cook for about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are soft and the turkey is fully cooked through.
Lightly mash the mixture with a fork or potato masher to reach your desired texture. Let it cool completely, then mix in the Dog Child Nutrient Mix and flaxseeds.
For an optional boost, top with a sprinkle of shredded apple (skin on for extra fiber).
Portion into meals and store in the refrigerator or freezer as needed.
