Luck Of The Irish Oatmeal: St Patrick’s Day Breakfast
Today we are featuring a recipe from the March edition of
EveryDay with Rachael Ray magazine.
Are you celebrating St Patrick’s Day with your dog?
How about making your dog a DELISH Irish Oatmeal breakfast.
Luck Of The Irish Oatmeal
(from page 118, EveryDay with Rachel Ray)
Makes: 4 cups
Prep: 5 min
cook: 25 min
6 cups of vegetable stock
1 1/2 cups steel-cut (not rolled or instant) oats
1 box(10oz) frozen peas, thawed
1 box(10oz) frozen spinach, thawed
Grated Parmesan, for sprinkling
In a large saucepan, bring stock and oats to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the oats are tender, about 25 minutes. Stir in the peas and spinach, then sprinkle with the Parmesan.
2 main ingredients are Spinach and Peas
Can Dogs eat Spinach and Peas?
Spinach contains vitamin A, C, B,and K. Vitamin C and K can promote healthy bones for dogs. Spinach also contains beta-carotene and plant crude fibre, which can promote gastrointestinal peristalsis.
Peas are great source of vitamin K,and C. Peas are high in dietary fiber and minerals which helps improve dog’s immune system.
I made some modification to the recipe …
1) cook the oats with Ginger water (boiled water w/ginger) and honey
2) use fresh spinach
3) puree spinach and peas, use it as a top garnish
4) parmesan cheese optional
5) use mini cupcake molds for individual servings

“What do you mean it’s not for me?” … reason for my facial reaction.
It’s for a very lucky pup that lives in CA.
Soon we will re-open our shop, Sugar’s Paw House.
