INGREDIENTS

6 cups of water
1 pound of ground turkey
2 cups of cooked brown rice
1 teaspoon of dried rosemary
8 ounce package of frozen broccoli, carrots and cauliflower combination

DIRECTIONS

Place water, ground turkey, cooked rice, and rosemary into a large Dutch oven or iron skillet. Stir until the ground turkey is broken and evenly distributed throughout the mixture. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat to low and simmer for 20 minutes. Add frozen vegetables, and cook for an additional 5 minutes. Remove from heat and cool. Refrigerate until using. Makes 10 servings.

Dr. DuBose says cooked rice is much easier for dogs to digest. In fact, she soaks rice in water overnight before cooking it. “Otherwise, it just comes out the other end.”
