Homemade Dog Food with Beef Recipe

I had some freezer burned ground beef and was looking for dog food recipe to use it. This was perfect. I used shredded fresh carrots I had, a couple of apples, a can of green beans that he loves and everything else according to the recipe. I gave him a taste when it was done and he gives it 4 paws!

First, why would you use canned vegetables opposed to frozen? Frozen has all of the nutrients and none of the sodium and who knows what else. Used my culinary background to modify the method. Had a 1.8# freezer burned, skin on salmon fillet. Roasted it plain in oven. Used a bag of frozen peas and carrots, a pkg of frozen spinach and added two roasted sweet potatoes skin on. Much more nutrition as frozen veg is frozen immediately after harvest. Cooked the rice as I normally would. Bring to boil, lower temp just a bit, cook 30 minutes. Turn off heat and let sitar-30 minuted…never open lid. Blended eggs alone first, then added cooled roasted sweet potatoes. After that was combined I added all but rice. Took purée and mixed with rice. Dog loves it. Salmon adds the omega 3s that help with his arthritis.

My dogs love this recipe just as it is. Although always good eaters, they are now visibly delighted before, during and after eating. I use as many organic non gmo ingredients as I can. I include beef in this recipe only on occasion. For health reasons I prefer Chicken, ground or chopped breast meat. I also add 1 c of raw organic oats and may use sweet potato instead of pumpkin. I don't puree the vegetables. I chop them small. I also add 6 oz of bowtie pasta sometimes. They love this recipe as is, but I like to change it up sometimes. Thank you for this!!!

My GSDs are extremely picky… I was spending a fortune on commercial “homecooked” foods and they wouldn’t eat it or it would upset their tummy. It’s so much cheaper and easier to make the food myself, and they love this recipe and do so well on it!!! I rotate this with other recipes, and change a few things. I use fresh baby spinach instead of canned, beef bone broth instead of adding bones, and sauté and chopped beef liver and heart.

Used canned beef and juice in 2 cups of brown rice cooked together, added a small can of organic pumpkin she’s pretty happy licking the bowl. Last night it was canned salmon, rice and a can of mixed veggies. No eggs she doesn’t do well on eggs and She doesn’t do well on dog food but she’s doing well on this. Thank you.

My AmStaff Manley loves this. However i slow cook 1.5kilo off beef roast or steaks instead of usin̈g bones.

I have one picky eater , and as soon as I put this down in his bowl he comes running lol. They literally are trying to lick the enamel off the bowl. Also they have the crazy zoomies afterwards which is a good sign they have had a really healthy meal . Like they were playing in the snow for 1 1/2hrs afterward haha . I also find it easily as expensive as there high end dog food I buy them so I’d prefer to make them this.. The only thing is I prefer to place half the rice so they get more meat in there servings ( I like spoiling them…) not sure if I should but I do.

My dog’s love this recipe. We do have replace the egg with avocado or egg as we have an egg allergy but they love it either way.

I will try this for my westie she is so picky I cant count the different wet or dry foods we have tryed with her but if we have like swiss chalet chickeb she goes nuts for it! So will try with beef and then chicken as well

This is being very well received by my dog! It’s easy to tweak it too which is great! Would it be ok to freeze it? I have a dog sitter coming for 10 days and it would be so easy if I could do that for her!

Everything sounds good to me. I would like to have an idea as yo how much I would serve my 7 pound Yorkie.

I have three big dogs. They all loved it!! This is definitely a keeper!

I don't think this recipe is sustainable. I would add chicken liver and water packed tuna and sardines.

Seriously, perfect 😱

You can totally make this on a weeknight.

Not sure how to grade this as I did make some changes. My dogs will not eat it. I put the ground beef, rice, carrots, sweet potatoes, green beans and eggs in but they turned their noses up and wouldn't eat it. Any suggesstions? I'm sure it's great for the dogs that aren't super picky!

So flavorful and so simple to make.

Bro, this recipe is straight-up wizardry.
