• 2 cups cooked and pureed beans or one 16 oz. can of pinto beans (drained)
• 2 cups rolled oats (more if mixture seems too thin)
• 4 cups cooked brown rice cooled (approx 2 cups dry)
• 1 cup wheat germ
• 1-2 cups liquid (water, milk, or fat free chicken or beef stock)
• 1 bouillon cube for flavor or 1 tsp. granules
• 2 eggs
• 2 cups (1lb) pureed vegetables or 1 can mixed vegetables, drained
• 3 tsp. garlic
• 1/2 tsp. salt substitute
• 2 Tbsp. Worcestershire sauce

Directions:

Mix and place in 2 large or 3 small loaf pans. Bake at 350 degrees F for one hour or longer, depending on your oven. Remove from oven and cool for 30 minutes.

Turn out on cutting board and cool completely in order to slice well. Slice and put in containers to freeze.

It is easier to mix ingredients if you puree beans, stock, eggs, garlic, salt, Worcestershire sauce and veggies before adding remaining ingredients

Editor's Note: There is some concern about giving garlic to dogs. Please check with your vet before including it in any food you give your dog.
