HOW TO MAKE TURKEY PUMPKIN MEATBALLS FOR DOGS

Just 5 ingredients are used to make these tasty turkey meatball dog treats.

  • Ground turkey - If using frozen ground turkey, ensure that it is thoroughly defrosted before cooking.
  • Pumpkin puree - We use our homemade pumpkin puree.
  • Eggs - Helps to bind the mixture as well as being nutrious.
  • Oats - Rolled oats are used.
  • Rice Flour - Another flour could be substituted. The quantity made need to be adjusted.

SERVING SUGGESTION

Try serving these with a teaspoon of nutritional yeast on top. Nutritional yeast is a great source of complete amino acids and full of B vitamins.

We have also served this as a special treat with zucchini noodles as a doggie version of spaghetti and meatballs. The zucchini noodles make a healthier alternative to pasta and are a great source of vitamins for the dogs.

Always check with your veterinarian before introducing any new foods into your dog’s diet.

HOW TO STORE MEATBALLS FOR DOGS

Keep the turkey meatballs in an air tight container in the refrigerator. They will last 4-5 days.

You can freeze any leftover meatballs for use later. Store them in a ziplock bag and they will freeze for up to 3 months. Defrost them thoroughly in the refrigerator. They could be gently reheated before serving too.
