Fruits are hidden gems, packed with vitamins, minerals, and fiber.

Folic acid and Vitamin K are plentiful in this recipe. Fish protein- loaded with omega-3 fatty acids- is a nutritious choice for pups and people.
The eggs round off the flavour and food benefits, and spinach ensures a healthy heart.

Bearing this in mind, spinach ought to be used in extreme moderation for furry friends.
#8: Creative Chicken Rice Balls
This dish uses chicken/egg as its protein and adds a little considered ingredient: brown rice.
A whole grain that provides benefits in the form of fibre, brown rice is drastically healthier than white rice variety.

Peas themselves contain small amounts of theobromine- the same ingredient that poses an issue with dogs and chocolate .

In using smaller portions, I keep the loved taste, and dont have to sacrifice health.
