Do you known any good puppy food/snack recipes? I want to make some homemade snacks for my 11 week puppy. Thx?
I have made some, and the dogs love them! My dogs seem to especially love the recipes with peanut butter in them. Here are some good sites, good luck!

The best and easiest treat to make for puppies is to get a size-appropriate KONG toy, stuff it, and freeze it.
My 4-month old basset mix, Humphrey, gets one medium-sized KONG every day. I stuff it every morning with this mixture:
1/2 a banana
2 TBS ultra lo-fat, no sugar added peanut butter
2 TBS Innova Evo Small Bites (his food - you can add whatever food your dog eats, obviously), softened with water
1 baby carrot
1 teaspoon water
I mix the banana, peanut butter, water and dry food together into a (disgusting) paste. Goop some of it into the KONG. Bury the carrot in the center, deep enough that it won't just fall out, but close enough to the big opening so that Humphrey can get to it. Then I seal the KONG up with the rest of the mixture, ziploc it, and freeze it for 4 hours.
It's a low-fat treat that takes minutes to make, feels great on his teething gums because it's frozen, is healthy and inexpensive, and - best of all - because it's frozen and the carrot is kind of buried, it takes him an hour to finish eating it!
Just make sure to wash the KONG in warm soapy water between uses.Do you known any good puppy food/snack recipes? I want to make some homemade snacks for my 11 week puppy. Thx?

Does anyone know where I can find recipes for Indian snack foods? Specifically Gujarati Farsans?
I once had a friend cook two incredibly delicious snack foods.
one was like spicy rice krispies, the other, deep friend dough, made into a spiral shape (VERY spicy).
Since they are snack foods - most restaurants dont offer them.
Does anyone know any recipes or recipe sites I might check?
I THINK the name of one was something like potatapuri but I'm sure thats spelled way off.

Healthy snack or dessert recipes with no wheat or sugar?
I'm looking for simple recipes for cookies, cakes, muffins, etc. I need recipes that have no wheat flour, no white sugar, no brown sugar, and no artificial sweetners. I'm only using maple syrup, honey, or molasses as sweeteners. I would prefer some easy homemade recipes using ingredients like flax, oats, brown rice flour, etc.Healthy snack or dessert recipes with no wheat or sugar?
You can take any normal recipes and replace the flour with rice or oat or potato flour, the eggs with a cornstarch mixture (1 tbsp of cornstarch mixed into 3 tbsp of cold water) and the sugars with your own sweetener. For denser flours, add more baking powder or baking soda to get them to rise. You may have to tweak the recipe a few times to get it the way you like it, but don't be afraid to experiment. It's fun and you'll create some delicious baked goods. Best of luck.Healthy snack or dessert recipes with no wheat or sugar?
Baking with natural sweeteners is fun, easy, and tastes good! It is easy to convert any recipe, just reduce the amount of sweetener to 1/2, and use it to replace the same amount of another liquid.
(For example, if your recipe calls for 1C sugar and 1C milk, use 1/2 cup honey/maple/whatever and 1/2C milk.)
As for the no-wheat, have you tried spelt? Many people who cant tolerate wheat can handle spelt, it has a different sort of gluten and can be used like wheat in any recipe.
This recipes is really simple and delicious, it meets all your requirements. Enjoy trying.

1/3 cup vegetable oil
录 cup honey
录 cup soy sauce
录 cup Dijon mustard

24 chicken drumettes

2. Trim the chicken of excess fat, then place in the dish with the marinade and toss until well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or preferably overnight, turning 2 to 3 times
3. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Lay the drumettes on a wire rack that has been placed over a baking sheet lined with aluminum foil. Bake, turning and brushing with the marinade 3 to 4 times, for 45 minutes or until golden brown and cooked. Serve immecdiately.

Bake at 400F for 5 minutes; cover loosely with aluminum foil, and bake 5 more minutes. Serve immediately over a doily or little muffin cup. They are clean, yummy and nutritious!
nabisco.com has some pretty good ideas for healthy snacks and my four preteens love them.
Snacks:
-popcorn
-graham crackers with cream cheese and jam
-sliced fruit with cheese sticks
-celery with cream cheese and raisins on top (known as ants on a log)
-a small bowl of cereal
-yogurt and fruit
-crackers with sliced cheese on top
-pizza squares
-trail mix (ie:mix whole-grain cheerios with dried fruit)
-fish crackers and fruit/cheese
-glass of milk with an oatmeal cookie
-quesadilla with/without turkey
-bean burrito with cheese
serve all with water to drink!
pizza wraps are really good, flour tortillas pasted with tomatoes or passatta, cheese, mushrooms, shredded spinach or any veg you can hide, black pepper and oregano, fold in foil and cook for 5 mins in hot oven.
chewy bars are the best, trai mix: dried fruit nuts(maybe not) cereal, raisns, m%26amp;m, choclate chips.
No peanuts/nut ingredients.

1. To make the marinade, place the oil, honey, soy sauce, mustard, lemon juice, and garlic in a large, nonmetallic dish and mix together thoroughly.
2. Trim the chicken of excess fat, then place in the dish with the marinade and toss until well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or preferably overnight, turning 2 to 3 times
3. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Lay the drumettes on a wire rack that has been placed over a baking sheet lined with aluminum foil. Bake, turning and brushing with the marinade 3 to 4 times, for 45 minutes or until golden brown and cooked. Serve immecdiately.
Notes:
Drumettes are the chicken wing with the wing tip removed.
Think ahead:
Cook a day ahead and reheat in an oven at 315 degrees Fahrenheit for 10-12 minutes
Celery and lowfat cream cheese
Lowfat cream cheese rolled up in lunch meat
Apple slices and lowfat cheese
Plain, natural yogurt fruit OR granola OR Quaker oats and honey
Brown rice with milk and cinnamon
How about stuffed mushrooms with philly cheese?
easy to make and very tasty, plus it has protein and veggies.
You just wash the mushrooms (champignon type), remove the stems, salt and pepper them and fill the whole with a spoonful of philly cheese. That is it. No need to do anything else.
Bake at 400F for 5 minutes; cover loosely with aluminum foil, and bake 5 more minutes. Serve immediately over a doily or little muffin cup. They are clean, yummy and nutritious!
nabisco.com has some pretty good ideas for healthy snacks and my four preteens love them.
Snacks:
-popcorn
-graham crackers with cream cheese and jam
-sliced fruit with cheese sticks
-celery with cream cheese and raisins on top (known as ants on a log)
-a small bowl of cereal
-yogurt and fruit
-crackers with sliced cheese on top
-pizza squares
-trail mix (ie:mix whole-grain cheerios with dried fruit)
-fish crackers and fruit/cheese
-glass of milk with an oatmeal cookie
-quesadilla with/without turkey
-bean burrito with cheese
serve all with water to drink!
pizza wraps are really good, flour tortillas pasted with tomatoes or passatta, cheese, mushrooms, shredded spinach or any veg you can hide, black pepper and oregano, fold in foil and cook for 5 mins in hot oven.
chewy bars are the best, trai mix: dried fruit nuts(maybe not) cereal, raisns, m%26amp;m, choclate chips.

I have been told that unsalted nuts are a healthy alternative to junk food such as chocoloate
look for a book in the bookstore or library
called so fat, low fat, no fat.
this is a great cookbook that centers on fat content......so depending on what type of diet your dad is on, you can adjust the ingrediants.....
in this cookbook are lots of ';normal'; dishes that have been
re done to take out the fat.......even a choc. fudge pudding cake
that is to die for......
Try sabudana khichdi or poha that is beaten rice cooked with cauliflower peas capsicum carrot boiled potato.
Have lots of fruit on hand for snacking. One of my favorite snacks is fruit and mixed nuts. Yogurt is also a good, health snack. A low calorie dessert for the chocoholic:
1 cup flour
3/4 cup granulated sugar
6 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup skim milk
2 1-ounce squares unsweetened chocolate
2 tablespoons butter
1 cup light brown sugar, packed
1 cup hot water
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly coat a 10-inch pie pan with nonstick cooking spray.
Mix together flour, sugar, 2 tablespoons of cocoa powder, baking powder and salt in a large bowl. Set aside.
Combine milk, chocolate squares and butter in a small saucepan. Heat on low until chocolate and butter are melted. Blend well into flour mixture. Transfer batter into prepared pie pan, spreading evenly across bottom.
In a small bowl, mix together brown sugar and 4 tablespoons of cocoa powder. Sprinkle evenly over batter. Place pie in oven and gently pour hot water over everything (this will create a brownie-like top and a gooey bottom). Bake for 40 minutes; center will be pudding-like.
Remove pudding pie from oven and let cool slightly. Top each serving with a scoop of frozen yogurt.
Fresh fruit
carrot cake is healthy and it tastes really good
My dad is the same way. Read all labels and make sure whatever he eats has no trans fat, partially hydrogenated oils. no more than 4gr. of fat and sugar.
Have a lot of fruits on hand for him to pick on during the day. Raw veggies are very healthy and almonds.
Raw 100% whole grain oats, nuts, and raisins can be sprinkled onto sugar free ice-cream, or light yogurt.
A kid's favorite is peanut butter (ALL NATURAL) and raisins on celery. Also, light cream cheese spread on celery is good. I like apples with peanut butter or almond butter.(ALL NATURAL)
Honey is also good on apples.
go to Kraftfood.com
Believe it or not, chocolate pudding isn't too bad of a treat for someone dieting plus it helps take care of the occasional chocolate craving. Check the label on pre-made pudding, particularly the kind in the cold dairy section. Or make your own and use skim milk. You can add other stuff to it like bananas or even a little Cool Whip.
This isn't SO bad...

Also, get him some flavored rice cakes, like caramel, cinnamon, etc--they are REALLY good. And he can eat a bunch of them. And get him some fresh fruit, like pink lady apples, asian pears, Minneola oranges, pinapple chunks, kiwi, strawberries, and mango--and get him some chocolate yogurt dip for it. Peaches topped with cool whip. Nutri-grain frozen waffles topped with berries and cool whip. Also, baby carrots with low fat ranch. Crunchy granola bars. Healthy cereals with skim milk. Tuna fish sandwiches. Popcorn or kettle corn. Lean cuisine type meals. And if he wants something else sweet, a slice of toast with a bit of jam is not that many calories.
Grind some skinned, unsalted, roasted peanuts in a food processor with some sugar %26amp; cocoa powder..... keep processing untill the oil comes out...forming a fudge like consistency....its healthy awwrite....
Fresh fruit is always healthy, apples, raisins, oranges, melons, dried Cranberries, dates, apricots, dried prunes, bananas, etc. Raw carrots are good too. Also full of fibre and vitamins.
Fruit salad w chocolate(just a little) whipped cream when it's warm oh it's so good. Substitute all the ingredients in cookies including the chips, if you can make a more healthier chocolate.
All sweets you can substitute , bleached flour/ wheat flour, 2% milk fat free but leave a little something in there. He won't notice, oh you can go to food network.com they had a whole week of healthy foods.
Go with some youghurt-covered raisins for snacks, but for a sort of lunch, marinate some steak in low-fat italian dressing, and serve it with garlic-buttered green beans.

Punched up punch: Get an ice cube tray and fill it with raspberry koolaid, (flavor of your choice, I prefer raspberry in this one.) and let it freeze. To make your punch, cool 2 quarts of cranberry juice, (100% is best, but you can use the other kind) add 2 liters of cooled soda, (lemon lime, Sprite, Sierra Mist, 7-Up, or for a real bite Ginger Ale) mix just before serving. Put in the koolaid ice cubes and stir. The ice cubes will add just a touch of flavor to this punch. OR, you can use raspberry sherbet instead of the ice cubes. Serve with snack crackers and cheese or cake. This makes a nice Holiday Punch for dinner as it isn't too sweet and it cleans your palate. Also good all by itself.

Medium or small size flour tortillas
Any kind of spaghetti-type pasta sauce (My favorite are the Ragu ones)
Mozarella cheese
Toppings. (I use pepperoni)
Get out a cookie sheet and lay out your tortillas. Spread on the pizza sauce, cheese, and your toppings.
For small tortillas, bake at 350 for about 10 minutes. For the medium ones, bake at 350 for about 13 minutes.

SWEET HEAT BUFFALO WING SAUCE
1/2 cup of Louisiana hot sauce
2 teaspoons sugar
5-8 chicken wings
Before mixing the chicken, stir the sugar and Louisiana hot sauce together and pour over the chicken.
12 oz. Durkee red hot cayenne pepper sauce (or favorite)
8 oz. butter (can use less if you like)
1/4 tsp. garlic salt (not powder)
1/4 tsp. onion salt
About 3 lbs. wings
Combine hot sauce, butter, garlic and onion salt; mix well in a pot and warm the sauce.
Dip wings in warm sauce until coated (if sauce is cold it won't coat well). Save remaining sauce.
Cook on grill 30 to 40 minutes or until brown, turning frequently to prevent too much burning (a little makes them taste better).
Place wings in a large skillet (cast iron works best). Pour in remaining sauce, cover and simmer slowly for about 1/2 hour.
Alternate plan. Place chicken in baking dish. Pour on remaining sauce and then cover dish. Bake in oven at 350 degrees for 45 minutes.
Serve hot with a good blue cheese dressing and celery sticks. Alternate plan. Cooked wings freeze well. I usually make a large batch and freeze some. Simply reheat and eat. WARNING: The more you reheat this stuff, the hotter (i.e. spicier) it gets.

Here's what I made tonight for a big snack...I didn't really have dinner.
Using your broiler, toast an English muffin, then top with American Cheese and thin sliced ham (I've sometimes used bacon) and put it back under the broiler until the cheese melts and the ham is warm. Delicious with a glass of milk!
Sorry I don't do wings - Buffalo or Cajun style!
I'm not sure about your egg tarts recipes, but a delicious baked egg is to line a muffin cup (or custard cup) with thin sliced ham, then add a little shredded cheese and crack an egg into it. Bake in 400 F oven for about 15 minutes...depends how well set you like the yolk.
banana smoothie. in a blender add:
1 banana
1 tbl spn of honey
1 tspn of vanilla esscence (optional)

%26amp; 2 cups of milk

For something inbetween my classes that will fill me up, I make tortilla pizzas. They're simple and don't take long. Preheat the oven to 350, and get your ingredients.
Medium or small size flour tortillas
Any kind of spaghetti-type pasta sauce (My favorite are the Ragu ones)
Mozarella cheese
Toppings. (I use pepperoni)
Get out a cookie sheet and lay out your tortillas. Spread on the pizza sauce, cheese, and your toppings.
For small tortillas, bake at 350 for about 10 minutes. For the medium ones, bake at 350 for about 13 minutes.
They're simple and delicous.Easy yummy recipes for snack? not copy paste?
SWEET HEAT BUFFALO WING SAUCE
1/2 cup of Louisiana hot sauce
2 teaspoons sugar
5-8 chicken wings
Before mixing the chicken, stir the sugar and Louisiana hot sauce together and pour over the chicken.
12 oz. Durkee red hot cayenne pepper sauce (or favorite)
8 oz. butter (can use less if you like)
1/4 tsp. garlic salt (not powder)
1/4 tsp. onion salt
About 3 lbs. wings
Combine hot sauce, butter, garlic and onion salt; mix well in a pot and warm the sauce.
Dip wings in warm sauce until coated (if sauce is cold it won't coat well). Save remaining sauce.
Cook on grill 30 to 40 minutes or until brown, turning frequently to prevent too much burning (a little makes them taste better).
Place wings in a large skillet (cast iron works best). Pour in remaining sauce, cover and simmer slowly for about 1/2 hour.
Alternate plan. Place chicken in baking dish. Pour on remaining sauce and then cover dish. Bake in oven at 350 degrees for 45 minutes.
Serve hot with a good blue cheese dressing and celery sticks. Alternate plan. Cooked wings freeze well. I usually make a large batch and freeze some. Simply reheat and eat. WARNING: The more you reheat this stuff, the hotter (i.e. spicier) it gets.
peanuts mixed with dates or raisins
You could make a quick quiche w/meat or w/o.

What are some good, non melting snack ideas and/or recipes for the lake?
Jerky
Trail Mix
Pretzels and peanut butterWhat are some good, non melting snack ideas and/or recipes for the lake?
I take home made cookies and sometimes brownies. Store them a hard plastic container. If they aren't loaded with frosting or glaze, they'll do just fine.
I often take those powdered donuts and hard cooked eggs for breakfast. They make an easy breakfast served with coffee and juice. No cooking.
I cook the main meals at home, pack them in airtight containers, freeze the food and then reheat it at the lake. I've done this with red green chili burritos, sliced roast beef in gravy, fried chicken fingers, prepared mashed potatoes, spaghetti sauce with meatballs (pre-cooked but didn't freeze the pasta). You can take whatever you like really. If you can freeze it and reheat it in a skillet or saucepan, you can serve on family camping trips.
I don't like to haul salad stuff. But, I take plenty of fruit: grapes, oranges, peaches, canned pineapple, melons. I have successfully packed cucumbers and baby carrots. Serve them with some ranch dressing.
I've gotten really efficient with this stuff over the years. I take three coolers. Frozen food goes in one, drinks in another and the third one for things that don't need to be cold like seasonings, coffee, sugar, creamer, tea bags, bread, mustard, etc. It keeps the ants, flies and kids from getting into stuff.What are some good, non melting snack ideas and/or recipes for the lake?

Cool completely, store tightly covered

over pretzels, stirring to coat.

Spiced Vanilla Pecans
1 pound whole pecan halves
6 cups water
1/2 cup superfine sugar (not confectionery or granulated)
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1 tablespoon light corn syrup
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground coriander
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon ground allspice

In a large saucepan, boil the pecans in the water for 1 minute. Drain well. While they're still hot, toss them in a large bowl with the sugar, melted butter, corn syrup and vanilla extract. Mix well and let the nuts sit, covered, for at least 12 hours, up to 24.
Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Put the nuts on a rimmed cookie sheet. Bake them for 30 minutes, stirring them every 5 minutes. The nuts should be well browned - though I realize they start out brown, so what you're looking for is a darker brown - and crisp-looking. Of course they won't really be crisp until they're cool.
Meanwhile, combine all the spices in a large bowl. The instant the nuts are done, add them to the spices and toss until they're well coated.

This is what you need - Mummy Faced Mini Pizzas. They are soooo cute! And not just another sweet:
RECIPE INGREDIENTS:
English muffins
Pizza sauce
Black olives
Red or green pepper
Cheese sticks or slices
1. Heat the oven to 350掳 F. For each mummy, spread a tablespoon of pizza sauce onto half of an English muffin (toast it first, if you like).
2. Set olive slices in place for eyes and add round slices of green onion or bits of red or green pepper for pupils.
3. Lay strips of cheese - I used a pulled-apart cheese stick - across the muffin for the mummy's wrappings. Layer it so that it looks like the bandage wrappings on a mummy.
4. Bake for about 10 minutes or until the cheese is melted and the muffin is toasty.
I have tried these because I intend to make them at Halloween, and they turned out great and really cute. You can see a picture of what they should look like at the family fun website.
Any good snack recipes for a halloween party?
snacks that are halloween themed are a necessity to every halloween sleepover! one idea that i tried last year with my friends was finger cookies! you can pick up a roll of sugar cookie dough at your super market aswas well black or orange frosting tubes, then you set the oven to the temtemperaturested. while the oven is heating up roll the cookie dough into finger shaped figures. make sure the ';fingers'; aren't too skinny or don't have enough dough, because it will burn them, oh and don't make them too fat, or too much dough cause it will take forever to cook ! also feel free to make lines where the knuckles are on the dough! after you finish baking the cookies let them cool for atleast least minutes. after they are done cooling add the frosting where the nail would be! if you want you could also buy fake blood at a party store.. its edible, and makes the cookies fit the halloween theme! the cookies are easy to make, and if they don't turn out perfect, they still taste delishh!
