Auggie's Wolfdown Recipe
Ingredients
Instructions
- Brown grnd beef in extra virgin olive oil.
- When beef is cooked, add in broth, water, and corn.
- (Note which broth and water amount to just over a gallon of liquid; you can also just dump in a gallon jug of water and add in a bunch of bouillon cubes.)
- Bring to a boil.
- Add in brown rice, stir well, cover, and bring to a boil again.
- Reduce heat to low and simmer, covered, for 1 hour.
- Remove from heat and let cold overnight.
- Makes approximately 40-45 c. of food.
- For Auggie, my black lab, I divide the yield into generous 2-c. portions and freeze most of it (it freezes well).
- I always have some thawed in the fridge and microwave it for a minute or possibly so to get it to room temperature.
- I then serve it as follows:
- Breakfast 1 portion (2 c.) Wolfdown 1 c. high-quality all-natural kibble
- Dinner 1 portion (2 c.) Wolfdown 1 c. fresh shredded veggies 2-3 times a week: a little nonfat plain yogurt and an egg yolk
- Auggie was a reluctant eater with commercial foods; now he's a tail-waggin', dish-movin', food inhalation machine.
- Bon appetit!
