can add/switch out other ingredients like cabbage, broccoli, lentils, dried or frozen peas, crushed tomatoes, bell peppers or most greens (add towards the end) - great use for leftover greens... slightly wilted, etc.
Check it in an hour or so before the scheduled end cook time to see if it needs more water.
Cool well before serving... store in fridge... use as needed.
Amelia (45 pounds) eats about 1.5 cups, twice daily... but also gets snacks... fruits, vegetables, etc.
Our smaller dog Annie(about 16 pounds) eat about 1/2 cup twice daily.
For our two dogs, making a batch lasts about 6-7 days.
If you have smaller dogs, I suggest making a 1/2 batch instead of a full batch.
I also make this recipe with Turkey, using 3 turkey thighs, and chicken broth instead of the beef broth.
To use Chicken, I use 3-4 large breasts or 6-7 chicken thighs.
Remove all bones before storing.
