Cat Treats

Cat Treats

Ellie and Emma have made their way out to the kitchen, where they found that there’s even more food than in the bedroom. Ellie let us clip her nails the other night. And while she’s not too keen on these, Emma and the dog love these:

Tuna Treats

1 can solid white tuna in water
1 egg
1/4 cup corn meal
1/2 cup whole wheat flour
1/2 teaspoon brewer’s yeast

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
Pour the tuna and its water into a bowl. Mix. Add the corn meal, flour, and yeast, and mix well.
Roll the mixture out into a skinny log, and cut or pinch off pieces that are about 1/2 teaspoon each. Place on ungreased cookie sheets and bake for 12 minutes. Freeze or refrigerate extras. These are just soft enough to break into smaller pieces for small cats or cats that eat too fast!

We had breakfast, opened presents, played with presents, and took the dog to the beach.

Amount Measure Ingredient — Preparation Method
——– ———— ——————————–
2 cups whole wheat flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1/2 teaspoon allspice
1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
1/2 cup brown sugar
2 bananas, whole — ripe
1/2 cup nonfat yogurt
1/2 cup molasses
1/4 cup vegetable oil

Preheat oven to 350 degrees (325 if you’re baking in glass pans). Spray a loaf pan with nonstick spray.

Mix dry ingredients (from flour to nutmeg) in a bowl and set aside.

Mash bananas, beat in remaining ingredients. Add the dry mixture and mix just until everything is moistened. Overbeating will make the bread have a rubbery texture.

Bake 45-50 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool in pan, then remove and slice!
