| Wheat-Free Salmon Treats |
Ingredients
- 1 8 oz. can salmon with juice
- 1/2 cup chopped parsley
- 3 eggs, shells included
- 1/2 cup sesame seeds ground up in coffee
grinder
- 1/2 cup flax seeds ground up in coffee
grinder
- 2-3 cups potato flour
Directions
Put these ingredients into a food processor, mix VERY WELL. Pour potato flour through the opening while the motor is running. I can't tell you exactly how much, but I would guess about 2-3 cups. When the dough forms, like a pie crust, and rolls into a ball it is ready to take out.
Dump this mess onto Potato floured counter or board. Knead more flour into this and when it is a rolled out cookie consistency, it is ready to roll out into about 14 inch thick. I use a pizza cutter to roll our long strips and then cut crosswise to make small squares . If you want FANCY you may use a cookie cutter.
Bake on cookie sheets, sprayed Pam or line the sheet with parchment paper. I put in as many as will fit. Usually two whole cookie sheets suffices. I bake this in a 375º oven for 20 min.
Turn and rotate the cookie sheets and bake about 10 more minutes. You can make them as soft or as hard as you want |
| Yummy Liver Treats |

Directions
Puree liver and garlic in food processor. Add eggs, whole wheat flour and cornmeal. Grease cookie sheet and pour mixture onto cookie sheet. Bake in 350 oven for 20 minutes, flipping over halfway through baking. Cut into desired sized squares.
I usually place 1/2 of this recipe in a Tupperware and keep in the fridge. The other half I freeze.......these freeze well. |
