Celebrate the day by honoring your furry family member(s). Take a nice long walk with your furry buddy, play fetch, or just sit under a large shade tree and enjoy the day.
Our furry family member's name is Kipper, and he is a Basenji (also known as the barkless dog).
His hobbies include chasing rabbits, squirrels, and chipmunks, begging for vegan food, sleeping, going on numerous walks, biting the tops off of dandelions, and tearing apart his stuffed animals.
His favorite foods are pizza, Tofurky, cookies, granola, and VDog.
Today I want to share with you a recipe for one of Kipper's favorite treats, Cheese Noms.
This recipe is from a cookbook I wrote titled One For You & One For Me. The book contains dessert recipes that are for both human and dog. These recipes allow you to make delicious desserts that you want that are safe for your dog to eat and enjoy also.
Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups organic unbleached flour
1/4 t organic dry mustard
1/2 t organic paprika
1 cup Daiya cheddar cheese
1/3 cup organic unsweetened non-dairy creamer
1/2 cup Earth Balance butter
1 teaspoon vegan Worcester sauce
Method:
Pre-heat oven to 425 degrees
Line a baking sheet with unbleached parchment paper and set aside.
In a large bowl, combine flour, dry mustard, and paprika. Cut in the butter and cheese using a fork until the mixture forms small crumbles.
In a small bowl, add the creamer and Worcester sauce. Mix until well-combined. Add to the flour mixture and mix until the dough holds together. You can add more creamer 1 teaspoon at a time if needed.
Use a tablespoon of dough for a good sized nom or use a teaspoon for a snack size. Roll into a ball and slightly flatten between both hands.
Place rounds on the lined baking sheet. Bake 10-12 minutes, flip the noms after 5-6 minutes.
Let cool before serving to your furry buddy.
Happy National Dog Day!
