On Monday I checked out the Easter section at Target to scope out any after-holiday clearance deals. Mostly I was just looking for backup plastic eggs for kibble hunts (which I did find for 50% off), but I also came across a 50% off bunny silicone mold. It was just the thing that I needed to finally make Athena a batch of frozen dog treats that I'd been eyeing on Pinterest. After looking at a couple of different recipes, I flung some different ingredients together to create these Triple Berry & Banana Frozen Yogurt Treats with Flaxseed.
Here's the recipe:
- 8-10 oz plain non-fat greek yogurt (I used Fage Total 0%)
- 1 banana
- 1 1/2 cups frozen or fresh berries (I used strawberries, raspberries, and blueberries)
- 1 tsp flaxseed meal (a great source of omega-3's for doggies!)
Instructions:
- Blend all ingredients together in a blender (I used a Magic Bullet)
- Pour mixture into a silicone mold, ice cube tray, cupcake liners, paper cups, or anything that you'd like!
- Freeze for at least 2 hours
- Serve to your four-legged friend!

| All ready for the freezer! |

| Once frozen, I popped the bunnies out the mold and stored them in a freezer bag |
As much as Athena loves the store-bought frozen treats like Frosty Paws, they don't love her so much (if you know what I mean). I love how easy it is to make her these cool berry treat and I love that I know exactly what's in them.
There are a ton of other great frozen treat recipes on Pinterest. Here are a few that I found that I want to try out next:
Mmm...those look awesome! They're actually making me kinda hungry...
ReplyDeleteWe've done Frosty Paws for Tess (she can eat anything), but we've never tried em with Edison. Ed loves, loves ice, so I can just throw him a few cubes and he's a happy boy.
I've also been wanting to try (this summer when it's extra hot out) freezing some treats into a block and setting it out for the pooches when we're playing in the yard.
But, I looove this idea and am totally going to have to steal it.
I want to try the frozen block of ice with treats/toys in the summer too! I'm always eyeing that on Pinterest!
DeleteThese look so good! I tried making ice cream for the pups once (but it didn't look as nice as yours!). We are filing this in our must-make file!
ReplyDeleteThat sounds like something I would want to eat too! I am definitely going to try out this recipe!
ReplyDeleteAwesome! I am definitely going to try this. I guess I need to get a blender first...
ReplyDeleteThat looks like a great idea. When Ray had a tummy ache I made some chamomile tea and froze it into cubes for him which he loved. He actually loves any kind of ice. Last summer I make a huge block of ice out of a gallon ice cream tub. I had toys and veggies in it and he absolutely went crazy for it.
ReplyDeleteooo... the tea cubes sound awesome - for me! Whould be so delish in a glass of water
DeleteThose look awesome. I bet it would be good in a frozen kong, too!
ReplyDeleteFrozen dog treats are a daily thing at the house! I use the silicone trays from Ikea in different shapes. Anything gets mixed together--usually 3-4 ingredients that may include anything from peas, sweet potatoes, beans, carrots, kale, parsley, blueberries, plain greek yogurt, coconut oil, bananas, apples, berries etc. Sometimes I throw a few of the little cubes into their Kongs for the day while we are out. We've tried flax a little, but not too much yet, I need a spice blender so I can get the flax ground up better as it's better served.
ReplyDeleteCute treats for such a cute pup!
