Cat and Kitten Treat Recipes

Chicken Crunchies (for the kitties)

1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour
1 1/2 cups rye flour
1 1/2 cups brown rice flour
1 cup wheat germ
1 teaspoon dried kelp or alfalfa
4 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 1/2 cups chicken broth or beef broth
1 pound ground chicken
1 to 2 tablespoons brewer's yeast

Heat the oven to 350 degrees F.

In a large bowl, combine the first six dry ingredients. Slowly add oil, broth and chicken, and mix well. On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough to a thickness of 1/8 inch, then place it on a greased cookie sheet. Bake until golden brown.

Cool, then break into bite-size pieces. Place pieces in a bag with the brewer's yeast and shake to coat them. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator.

Makes 2 to 3 dozen pieces.
