This is a recipe is one of my staple. I use a whole chicken complemented with some leg quarter because leg quarters alone will be too high in fat compare to proteins.

Warning!
For this recipe you will need to blend the bones with the meat. Make sure you have a good blender

– 1 Whole Chicken
– 5 Lbs or Chicken Legs Quarters (1/2 a bag)

Add some water in the pan with the chicken, about 4 cups, for the cooking. Set the oven at 365F and cook for about 1h45min.

Let it cool off and then bend it. My blender can handle a whole chicken but with the Vitamix 5200 you might want to split the chicken into 2 and add 375mL (about 1-1/2 Cup) of water at a time. Blend it until you get a thick you get a paste.

Then you can pour it into different containers for the week. I usually put the Salmon Oil and the Brewer’s yeast at the bottom. Green cabbage is high in Vitamin K. Serving size is about 650 gr for my dogs and it’s about 1’100 calories. I adjust the quantities according to the season. They will be a bit less active during summer in Texas as it’s quite sizzling… Colder months are the ones they eat 650gr.
I always add 1/2TBSP of salmon oil (here) and some spice either cumin, ginger or turmeric and some brewer’s yeast (here).

For these quantities, Salmon oil included that will bring the meal per day at about $2.20* for in between a 55 lbs very active dog or a 65 lbs active dog. Also when I feed them I always add a bit of that vegetables Puree

*that price depends on the region and the grocery store you shop. But it give you an idea tio compare with kibbles
