A small concentrate of superfood designed to support your dog's coat, skin, and immune defenses. Spinach, banana, kefir, and spirulina blend together with a cube of liver for a bright green result, fragrant and full of nutrients. It’s beautiful to serve in a decorated bowl or frozen in cubes to enhance meals.
Ingredients
- 15 g of fresh spinach (half a cup)
- half a ripe banana
- 1 cube of liver (10 g) or 3 small freeze-dried liver snacks (3 g)
- 1 serving of vegetable omega oil (about 5 ml)
- 120 ml of unsweetened, unflavored coconut water
- a pinch (about 1 g) of spirulina powder
- 60 ml of unsweetened natural kefir
Procedure
- Place the spinach, banana, liver cube (or freeze-dried snack), omega oil, and coconut water into the blender. Blend until you achieve a smooth cream. If you prefer a thicker consistency, add a few ice cubes.
- Prepare the serving bowl: brush the inner walls with kefir and sprinkle a pinch of spirulina along the edges for a shaded effect.
- Pour the smoothie into the bowl or on the mat for a snack enrichment.
Notes
The vegetable omega oil provides omega 3, 6, and 9, which are beneficial for the coat and joints. Spirulina is a blue-green algae rich in nutrients, safe for dogs in small amounts. Serve this smoothie as a special snack 2-3 times a week. Suggested portions range from 2-4 tablespoons for dogs under 4.5 kg to 1 cup for dogs over 35 kg.
Storage
In the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to 2 days, or frozen in molds for quick topping.
