If you are wanting to get your fur babies off of store-bought kibble, here's an option for homemade dog food where you control the ingredients. Change it as you like to meet your own pup's needs. You could also alternate between beef and chicken, or vary it as you desire. My dog is beyond excited to get her bowls of it!

Ingredients

  • 3 pounds organic carrots
  • 3 pounds organic apples , peeled and cored
  • 4 pounds fresh or frozen green beans , thawed
  • 2 , 16 ounce
  • 1 pound organic baby spinach
  • 0.75 cups olive oil , divided
  • 0.75 cups coconut oil , divided
  • 3 pounds 85% organic , grass-fed lean ground beef
  • 2 , 15 ounce

Instructions

  1. 1

    Wash and trim ends of carrots. Peeling is unnecessary if using organic ones. Cut into small enough pieces to chop in a food processor and set aside. Chop apples, green beans, blueberries, and spinach in the food processor and set aside.

  2. 2

    Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil and 1 tablespoon coconut oil in a large (at least 10-quart) stockpot and saute carrots until softened, about 5 minutes. Add apples, green beans, blueberries, and spinach and cook over low heat, stirring occasionally, until cooked through, 5 to 10 minutes.

  3. 3

    Meanwhile, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil and 1 tablespoon coconut oil a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir ground beef in the hot skillet until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes. Add to stockpot. Add pumpkin puree, remaining olive oil and coconut oil and mix everything until well combined. Cover and allow to cool.

  4. 4

    Refrigerate for 8 hours, or overnight. Divide desired portions into resealable plastic bags, removing as much air as possible, and freeze until needed.
