Ingredients
- Boneless, skinless turkey breast
- 1 lb
- Cranberries (unsweetened)
- 1/4 cup
- Carrots
- 2, peeled and chopped
- Green beans
- 1 cup, chopped
- Sweet potato
- 1, peeled and chopped
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy clean-up.
- Place the turkey breast on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) when checked with a meat thermometer. This ensures the turkey is cooked thoroughly and safe for your pet.
- While the turkey is in the oven, steam the sweet potato, green beans, and carrots until they are soft. You can do this in a steamer or in a microwave-safe bowl with a bit of water, covered with a plate.
- Once the turkey is cooked, allow it to cool to a safe temperature before handling. Then, chop the turkey breast into bite-sized pieces suitable for your dog's size.
- Mash the sweet potato in a bowl until it's smooth. Do the same with the cranberries in a separate bowl. This will be a sweet and tangy treat for your dog.
- Combine the chopped turkey, mashed sweet potato, steamed green beans, carrots, and mashed cranberries in your dog's bowl. Mix well to combine.
- Serve the meal at room temperature to ensure it's safe for your dog. Always check with your vet before introducing new foods into your pet's diet.
Tips
- Always ensure the food is at a safe temperature before serving it to your pet.
- Consult your vet before introducing new foods into your pet's diet.
- For smaller dogs, chop the ingredients into smaller pieces to prevent choking.
