Here’s something to serve the furry members of your family: a Doggy Casserole that’s full of nutrients and tastes a heck of a lot better than the canned stuff.

Just mix:

1 cup boiled poultry, chopped
½ cup cooked brown rice
½ cup boiled mixed vegetables
3 to 4 Tbsp unsalted chicken broth

Stir together and serve at room temperature. A good doggy multivitamin/mineral supplement may be added for good measure. Be sure to store unused portions in a covered container in the refrigerator and discard remains after 3 days.
