Difficulty: Medium
Ingredients: 5-7
Ingredients:
- 2/3 cup raw food total (or your dog’s favorite food)
- 3 tbsp kefir, Greek yogurt, or raw goat’s milk
- 2-3 fresh mint or parsley leaves
- 3 fresh or dried cranberries
- 3-4 tbsp shredded chicken
- sprinkle cinnamon
- dog cookie of choice
- candy cane Qwizl stick (optional)
Directions:
- Plug the side hole of your Toppl with a Toppl Stopper
- Place shredded, boiled chicken at the bottom of your Toppl. Place dog’s meal on top (if using kibble, add 1-2 spoons of bone broth to hydrate the kibble, then freeze the Toppl for minimum 4 hours).
- Slowly fill the remaining top of the Toppl with kefir and sprinkle cinnamon on top.
- Once the Toppl is filled, place a cranberry with two mint leaves (or parsley sprigs) on top for safe mistletoe look.
- Garnish with a dog cookie of choice.
- If your dog has been EXTRA good, place a Qwizl “Canine Candy Cane” in the top, like a festive straw.
- Place back into the freezer for minimum 4 hours.
Nutrition Tip:
If using kibble, we recommend using some onion-free bone broth to help freeze your creation together.
Homemade bone broth turns into a collagen-packed canine superfood. Collagen can heal gut walls, nourish joints, and strengthen hair and nails.
