Monday's Munchies

Many of us are wonderful cooks and generous about sharing our recipes. Mondays are for "make it happen" people. What could be a better way to encourage each other and create than to share what is going on in our kitchens.

For all you dog lovers out there...

Here is something you don't see every day. A recipe for your dog. Seems only fair that there should be at least one since there are so many for people!

This is from Patti Berry's kitchen, and she says "..here are pictures of my two granddogs...Rocky and Roxy.



Some day I am sure we will get some two legged grandchildren, but for now, we have fun with these two. Here is a recipe to make some great homemade dog treats. I assure you, Roxy and Rocky both love them and I enjoy baking for them too!

GARLIC-CHEESE DOG BISCUITS

1+1/4 cups shredded cheddar cheese
1/4 cup stick margarine, softened
1+1/2 cups whole wheat flour1
Tbsp minced or crushed garlicdash salt6-8
Tbsp milk

In a mixing bowl, beat the cheese and margarine. Add the flour, garlic and salt, mix well. Add enough milk to form a stiff dough. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes.

Roll out dough to 1/4 inch thickness. Cut with bone shaped (or any that you like) cookie cutter. Place on an ungreased baking sheet. Bake at 375 for 20 minutes or until edges are golden brown. Let cool. Biscuits will harden as they cool."

Even if you don't have a dog, your neighbor might, and how many recipes are out there for your pooch?

I miss my little dog, Shiner. We had her for 17 years. I thought of her when I found this quote about dogs...

"He is your friend, your partner, your defender, your dog. You are his life, his love, his leader. He will be yours, faithful and true, to the last beat of his heart. You owe it to him to be worthy of such devotion." -Unknown
