Main Ingredients
- 1 cup cooked, shredded chicken (no seasoning)
- 1 cup low-sodium chicken broth
- 1/2 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
- 1/2 cup plain yogurt (unsweetened and non-fat)
- Optional: 1 tablespoon honey (for dogs over 1 year old)
- Prepare the Ingredients: Cook the chicken by boiling or baking until fully cooked, then allow to cool and shred it into small pieces to ensure it blends well with other ingredients.
- Blend Ingredients: Combine the shredded chicken, chicken broth, blueberries, plain yogurt, and optional honey in a blender or food processor, blending until smooth and well combined for a uniform pup pop mixture.
- Fill the Molds: Pour the blended mixture into silicone molds or ice cube trays, leaving slight space at the top to accommodate expansion during freezing; optionally drop a few whole blueberries into each mold for added texture and visual appeal.
- Freeze: Place the molds in the freezer and allow to freeze for 4-6 hours or until the pup pops are completely solidified.
- Serve: Remove the frozen pup pops carefully from the molds; if they stick, run warm water briefly over the outer surface of the molds to ease release, then serve as a cool and tasty treat for your dog.
Notes
- Use cooked chicken only to ensure food safety for your pet.
- Substitute blueberries with other dog-safe fruits like strawberries, bananas, or watermelon for variety.
- Consider adding a tablespoon of xylitol-free peanut butter for added flavor.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 2 months.
- Check with a veterinarian if your dog has dietary restrictions or allergies.
