Recipes starting with J

Well it's apple season and I decided to make Jake a cake!  We just love our Bialetti cake pan!

I really enjoy making Jake healthy treats! He loves them too. I was just enjoying an individual unsweetened applesauce and Jake was staring at me so I gave him a tasted and he loved it. Then I decided to make him a treat of apple cookies.

Here we go!

You can use any of your favorite cooking cutters for this biscuits.  I always see dog biscuits cutters and other fun cooking essentials at Home Goods for my pup!

Even our pets celebrate a birthday... And of course we celebrate Jake's birthday in style... He get's his own birthday cake. I love making cakes in a cute mold for him to enjoy.

Only the best for my dog!

Another special treat for Jake!

Jake loves chicken jerky but it gets expensive. I bought 5 pounds of chicken breast for 1.99 per pound and used about 2 pounds for Jake and the rest for us. I put them in individual freezer bags. Left some in the refrigerator - it is good for a couple of weeks then the rest in the freezer to take out as needed. Jake really loves this dehydrated chicken. I do not have a dehydrator but the oven worked fine. This is what I did to make these yummy homemade treats for my wonderful dog - Jake!!

I love making Jake many of his treats!  I know what's in them and he is so cute how is just sits with me in the kitchen waiting to eat up some treats!  He is such a great dog and makes us very happy.

You should all know by now how  much I love my Jake!  He loves pumpkin and apple so I thought a meatloaf would be a great recipe for him.  He will just love it crumbled in with his kibbles!  

My plan was to make it in a loaf pan but they are all packed.  Until we move I need to be a little creative in the kitchen.  This was easy; I just formed the loaf on a lined baking sheet and it worked perfect.  We actually cut the loaf and half and Jake shared with his BFF RJ.

I hope you make this recipe for your dog - I am promise you lots of kisses..

As I was organizing my pantry there were 3 cans of salmon and immediately I thought of Jake!  I made him salmon sliders..   Love my dog...

If you know us – then you know Jake! He is our Jack Russell that we love so much. Since he is part of our family I will be making him a Thanksgiving treat. Using some of the turkey from dinner.

I have heard different stories about dogs and turkey. Jake has had turkey but I only give him a little at a time and he has always been fine. If you are unsure then only give a little at a time or use chicken for this recipe.

While at the grocery store I decided that making beef and broccoli sounded really yummy for dinner.  Normally it's served with rice but I decided to prepare a jicama chopped salad.

While in Mexico last year we would get jicama sticks on the table and they are so refreshing and they really do take on flavors.

This is a nice and hearty salad that can be topped with your favorite protein but I do hope you try it with my beef and broccoli dish.  Super delicious...

Cindy's Tip:  Cut all of the vegetables the same size.  I like them in mini cubes!
