Thanks! I myself love all types of onions for my food. But maybe for Bei, I'll not use it, just for safety. But thanks for all the recipes to all, I will try all one by one and cut just the garlic ingredients, hope they still taste well

Although the recommendation to feed onion or garlic to pets is quite popular in the lay press, and allowable under current US AAFCO regulations, we do not recommend feeding garlic, leeks, onions and chives to dogs or cats because there is a potentially serious downside. Members of the Allium family (garlic, leeks, onions and chives) contain organosulfoxides, in particular, alk(en)ylcysteine sulfoxides. Cooking or spoilage of Allium plants does not reduce their potential toxicity. Please see the complete article on Feeding onions and garlic to pets in our Nutrition Library."
