Inspired by the Forever Dog Life book
Ingredients
- 1/2 lb Ground turkey or beef (I used 99/1 ground turkey because of Daisy Jane's gastrointestinal issues)
- 1 egg
- 1/2 cup rolled or steel cut oatmeal
- 1/4 cup shredded cheese (I skipped this one)
- 1 large sweet potato skinned, cooked and mashed or 1 8 oz can pure pumpkin puree
- Decorations
- For the candles I used skinny asparagus
- The top garnish is her veggie mix
- Bottom is blueberries
- You can be creative and use any dog safe veggie/fruit for decorations
- The "ice cream" is non-fat Greek yogurt
Directions
- Cake
- Preheat oven to 220 degrees
- Mix ground meat, egg, oatmeal and cheese
- Shape into at least two patties (I doubled the recipe and made several small meat patty treats along with the two cake layers)
- Place patties on parchment covered sheet pan
- Bake patties 2 1/2 hours (or longer if needed)
- When done remove from oven and let cool
- Frosting/Decorations
- Mix the sweet potato/pumpkin with a bit of broth and disk till creamy adding a bit more broth as needed
- Assembly
- Place a patty on plate
- Top with middle filling (can be the same as the frosting, can be pureed fruit or veggies...I used some of Daisy's veggie mix)
- Place the top patty on
- Use the sweet potato/pumpkin to frost like you would frost a cake...filling holes and crevices
- Smooth the frosting with a knife
- Add candles and other decorations if desired
- Watch them gobble it up!
