Dog Food Recipes: Turkey, Sweet Potato and Pea Balls Diet
 |
 |
Servings:
Makes approximately 20 balls
Description:
Many dogs have food intolerances and allergies to chicken, so turkey is an excellent option for these pets. Sweet potato has long been regarded as a superfood and in particular provides high levels of vitamin A, great for night vision. Sweet potato also has a low glycaemic index and adds a slightly sweet flavour to food. These balls are ideal as an accompaniment to your dog’s regular diet. On their own they are not a complete balanced food, but they provide the recommended ratio of protein, carbohydrates and fats. Serve up 3-5 balls with your dog’s regular food for some tasty variety. You can also experiment with other meats and vegetables.
Ingredients:
500g lean turkey mince
1 egg
1 medium sweet potato
250g frozen peas, thawed
1 Tbsp olive oil

Steamer, baking tray and oven
