Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Gather all ingredients and measure them out accurately. Chop the carrots if they are not already shredded.

  2. 2

    Cook the Ground Beef

    In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the ground beef and cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes, stirring frequently.

  3. 3

    Add Vegetables and Rice

    To the browned beef, add the shredded carrots, peas, and brown rice. Stir well to combine.

  4. 4

    Add Broth and Pumpkin

    Pour in the chicken broth and add the pumpkin puree. Stir all ingredients together until well mixed.

  5. 5

    Simmer

    Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Cover the pot and let it cook for about 20 minutes, or until the rice is fully cooked and the liquid has been absorbed.

  6. 6

    Add Optional Supplements

    If using, stir in the fish oil and any vitamins as per the recommended dosage. Mix well.

  7. 7

    Cool and Serve

    Allow the mixture to cool before serving it to your dog. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
