Puppy Growth Formula

Ingredients

• 1 lb ground turkey (85% lean)
• 1/2 cup brown rice (uncooked)
• 1/2 cup rolled oats (uncooked)
• 1 large sweet potato, peeled and diced
• 1 cup chopped green beans
• 1/2 cup grated carrots
• 2 tablespoons ground flaxseed
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1/2 cup low-sodium chicken broth
• 1/4 teaspoon iodized salt

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Bring 1 cup of water to a boil in a medium pot, add brown rice and rolled oats, reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 20 minutes until tender and water is absorbed.
2. While grains cook, brown the ground turkey in a large skillet over medium-high heat, breaking it into crumbles, cooking until no pink remains, about 8-10 minutes.
3. Add diced sweet potato to the skillet with the turkey, pour in chicken broth, cover, and simmer for 10 minutes until sweet potato is fork-tender.
4. Stir in chopped green beans and grated carrots, cook uncovered for 5 more minutes until vegetables are soft and liquid is mostly evaporated.
5. Remove from heat, fold in the cooked rice and oat mixture, then stir in ground flaxseed and olive oil until evenly distributed.
6. Sprinkle iodized salt over the mixture and stir thoroughly to combine.
7. Allow to cool completely to room temperature before serving or storing.
