What a great thread...somehow I missed it.

Another recipe to add...I give Zoe dry during the day and homecook at night so I don't really measure the portions (and I know there's a huge debate about portioningin) or add supplements

olive oil
ground beef, chicken, or turkey or turkey breast peeled
carbs (brown rice or alternate with pasta)
veggies (brocolli, green beans, carrots, peas, spinach, or whatever I have on hand) + add 1 tomato
flavor with rosemary or other herbs
salt
I keep it semi stewy although their face gets really yucky with wet foods so I keep it on the runny but not so soupy side

This is from a friend in Sarasota.... I had to increase the serving size because Taylor is a "JORKIE" = "Jumbo Yorkie This makes only about 2 weeks worth for Taylor... but he's a big guy.

In a large pan I very briefly sauté in 1 tablespoon of Extra Virgin Olive Oil 1 pound of ground chicken and 1 pound of beef, add a total of 9 cups of half water/ half unsalted chicken broth, stir in 3 cups of millet and let simmer.
After 10 Minutes, I add 2 cups of a combination of grated Carrots, Zucchini, Celery, Fennel, Parsley, (no beans or cabbage...!!) and very little garlic powder plus sometimes fruit like bananas, very little Mango, Apple or Berries, sometimes a little Peanutbutter or Parmesan. (Just to change the flavor.) You can divide the cooked mixture and add different final flavors to it.
Let cool, fill in ice cube trays, (or other small containers) freeze and fill in Ziploc bags to avoid freezer burn.
I take two of the cubes out every evening to let thaw in the fridge for the next day.
I serve it to Filou in the shape of a little mount and put his quarter of Vitamin pill (description on bottom of page) on the very top so he gulps it down with his first eager bite.
Depending on the size of your dog, this portion will last between 2 and 4 weeks.
The only setback about this preparation is Filou barking during the entire 20 Minute cooking time!

Plus I add a Super VitaChew from PetMeds to his food each day...and cut it up with a pill cutter and mix it with his food. Taylor gobbles this!

Also I ordered the book "The Whole Pet Diet" from www.amazon.com and it has a lot of good recipes and information.

hi, i am reading that you give your yorkie a 1/4 of his vitamin a day, super vitachews, i was wondering how big he is , cause i read on the bottle that up to 20 lbs, to give a whole pill. my sammy is 6.5 lbs and i give him 1 pill a day. do you think it is harmful to him and do you think i should cut it down to half?
by the way i made your recipe tonight and added all different flavors by dividing up the portions. i had him taste each one and he loved the flavors. thanks for your help
