Ingredients
  

  • ½ cup cooked split peas
  • ½ cup cooked lentils
  • ½ cup cooked chickpeas
  • ½ cup cooked kidney beans
  • ½ cup cooked brown rice
  • ½ cup cooked quinoa
  • ¼ cup diced cooked carrots
  • ¼ cup steamed spinach
  • ¼ cup cooked pumpkin plain, no sugar or spices
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil or coconut oil for healthy fats

Equipment

  • Medium or large saucepan (for cooking grains and legumes if not pre-cooked)
  • Steamer or small pot (for veggies)
  • Mixing bowl
  • Spatula or spoon
  • Storage containers for leftovers

Method
 

Step 1:
  1. If not already done, cook the split peas, lentils, chickpeas, kidney beans, brown rice, and quinoa separately according to their package instructions. Make sure all legumes are soft and fully cooked.
Step 2:
  1. Dice the carrots and steam or boil them until soft. Steam the spinach lightly until wilted. Cook the pumpkin (or use canned pumpkin with no additives).
Step 3:
  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine all the cooked grains, legumes, and vegetables. Mix thoroughly until evenly distributed.
Step 4:
  1. Drizzle in 1 teaspoon of olive oil or coconut oil. Stir well. This provides essential fatty acids for your dog’s skin and coat.
Step 5:
  1. Let the mixture cool to room temperature before serving to your dog. Portion according to your dog’s size, and store the remaining food in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or freeze for longer storage.

Notes

Always consult your veterinarian before switching your dog to a vegan diet. Ensure your dog receives supplements for taurine, B12, calcium, and L-carnitine if not already balanced in the diet. Avoid adding salt, spices, onions, garlic, or other toxic ingredients.
