Hamburger Happy Pup
2/3 c hamburger
1/2 c brown rice
1/4 c potato
1/4 t garlic powder
1/2 carrot
1 c water
Chop the meat, carrot, and potatoes into small pieces. Put them in a pot with ½ c of water and garlic powder. Boil over high heat. Cook the rice while waiting on the other ingredients to soften and cook. Add a little water to the meat pot every so often to keep it moist. Once the rice is cooked, add it to the meat pot, stir, and cook for a few more minutes until the rice has soaked up the liquids.
Chicken Pot Pup
2 chicken thighs
1 stalk celery
3 carrots
2 small potatoes
2 cups brown rice
5-6 c water
In a large pot, place chicken and cover with water. Chop up the vegetables and potatoes and add them to the pot. Simmer on low heat until chicken is cooked, about 2 hours. Add the brown rice and cover the pot, cooking for about a half hour. You see see most of the liquid has been absorbed. Take the pot off the heat, remove the chicken and debone it, throwing away the bones. Shred the chicken and mix it back into the pot. Wait until it has cooled before feeding to your dog.
