There is so much research now to prove that dogs can live a very healthy life on a plant based diet – IF you know what you are doing. From time to time I share with you how you can change your dogs’ diet to:
- – a mostly plant based one
- – a healthy conventional diet WITHOUT the “kibble”
Here is a simple but healthy pasta recipe that your dogs will love!
[recipe title=”Pasta Carbonera – Eva Style” servings=”2 (75lb dogs)” time=”20mins” difficulty=”easy”]
Ingredients:
- whole grain SPELT pasta
- 4 tbsp olive oil
- water for cooking pasta
- 4 eggs
- 2 cups finely chopped greens – kale/parsley/chard/spinach or all (frozen greens work too!)
Directions:
In a large pot boil the water. Pasta needs to”swim” in water. Add 1 pack of whole grain SPELT Pasta to the boiling water. You can choose any shape – the dogs do not care. Boil for about 5 minutes – al dente. Do not over cook. Drain in colander – reserve 1/2 cup of the cooking water. Mix 1 table spoon of olive oil into the pasta.
Beat the eggs with a fork adding about 1/4 cup of water – set aside. (note on eggs: Use ONLY real organic eggs – as local as possible).
Put pot back on the stove on low/medium. Add olive oil. Add the reserved cooking water. Now add the eggs, stirring. Now add greens and cook on low for about 3 minutes – now add about 2/3 of the pasta. Stir it all up, take the pot off the stove and divide into two dishes.
This is a very fast dinner to make for them. And it is stuff we usually have in the cupboard anyway. And you can use frozen greens as well!
