I'm lazy.<BR> <BR>Date: Sat, 24 Nov 2007 16:34:02 ESTFrom: Houndy2@aol.comSubject: [Dailydrool] Sharing Simone's Secret Rescue Treet Recipe With DDTo: dailydrool@proctorhome.net Simone's Yammy Treets Aunty Sandy first gave us good advice about<BR>making these. Here is the BEST SECRET: The trick is to just DO<BR>IT...MAKE THEM that's all. Just make em and you will be amazed! Just<BR>make em! You won't be sorry the hounds will LOVE them and you will find<BR>it is wayyy easy. All dogs need a good healthy treet. Especially<BR>Rescue Dogs..so this is what we do here for making home made dog<BR>treets: We buy a big sack of Yams/Sweet Potatoes at Costco Heat your<BR>oven to 350 and then slice up the vegetables (we do ALLLL vegetables<BR>celery root, beets, potatoes carrots now not just Yams) into whatever<BR>shapes you please..up to about 1/4 in width) If I feel strong I just<BR>cut the Yams into LONG slices..takes more muscle power and a bit more<BR>care so that you don't cut YOURSELF...lol but the dogs just LOVE a<BR>HUGE "Yammy Chip" as we call em. Lay the coins or slices all around <BR>the pan and tip them up on the lip of the heavy baking sheet. (we have<BR>usedwire racks but that takes longer to set them in as they sometimes<BR>"fall through" the rack..and setting them on their sides into the rack<BR>ALSO takes too long... if you just simply tip up the slices sort of on<BR>the lip and just a tiny bit over as in a fan...leaving as much surface<BR>to the air as possible. Fill a couple of heavy baking sheets with the<BR>vegetable slices. Turn down the oven to 200 and slide in the sheets to<BR>bake for at least about and hour and a half then...just quickly flip<BR>all the slices over with your fingers..no need for forks or<BR>spatulas...believe me we have tried every way to make this easy...the<BR>reason you need to flip them is to let them dry more on both sides...<BR>to dry and cook the other side. Take them out when you think they are<BR>"done" or ..when you have the time...if you forget and they get<BR>BLACK..you know what..they dogs still just adore them...it is best<BR>though when they still have COLOR and are ..just slightly leathery.<BR>When we first started making these we would put the oven on "Warm" and<BR>put them in ..in the evening and take them out in the morning. You<BR>will find the best way for your lifestyle. I've discovered that it<BR>only takes about 3 hours total to do them...and that they do not have<BR>to be baked till they are black as we read in a recipe lol...You can<BR>just take them out when it is convenient for you... You can not wreck<BR>them. The dogs will adore them. Really. If you wish to wash the Yams<BR>first with water and a brush..that is good..but you know..we have<BR>found that the Yams are really clean and we now just wipe them off with<BR>a damp towel and they really are so easy to make.... we have been<BR>feeding them to the dogs for 6 months like this and there is no<BR>problem...(I used to PEEL the Yams before baking but when "Banjo and<BR>Henry GOBBLED up the pile of peelings...that were on the cutting board<BR>when I left once to answer the door...that's when I stopped peeling the<BR>Yams....why make it harder than you have to?!) The trick is to just<BR>try em! Maybe our dogs are "hard up for treets" with so many dogs in<BR>the house..maybe it IS an orphanage this Rescue House but we have<BR>tried giving them to our Friends Pampered Loved dogs and they LOVE<BR>them too.<BR> <BR> <BR> <BR></PRE><BR><PRE> </PRE> <br /><hr />Bing brings you maps, menus, and reviews organized in one place. <a href='http://www.bing.com/search?q=restaurants&form=MFESRP&publ=WLHMTAG&crea=TEXT_MFESRP_Local_MapsMenu_Resturants_1x1' target='_new'>Try it now.</a></body>
