Homemade Dog Treats

I think I mentioned that we adopted a 2 year old labradoodle. This dog has the stinkiest farts. Oh Lord, they smell bad. I was reading up on what kind of food to feed him, when I came across something that said that it is good for your dog to have yogurt. It helps with the farting and is good for their digestive track. For Valentine's Day, I made my little stinker yogurt treats.

It's a scoop of low-fat plain yogurt and some kibble.

I put it into this plastic, heart shaped ice cube tray (found it at Ikea) and then stuck it in the freezer.

Poncho says "these are delicious". Not only did they help with the stinkiness but he really likes them. How about that for an easy treat for my doggy friend?

Ranch-Cilantro Snack Wraps

I must say that I have a complete obsession with cilantro. It's delicious. I know crafting things for your home is what I typically write about but its time for a slight change in pace. I mean crafting is taking thing and putting them together to make them useful. Isn't that what cooking is too? So today, I dedicate this post to krafting in the kitchen. (I just laughed at myself for writing that.)

This my friends, is a ranch-cilantro wrap:

Ingredients:

Ranch Dressing Packet
5 oz Greek Yogurt
1 T Finely Chopped Cilantro
4 oz Cooked Chicken
4 T Diced Cucumbers
1-8"Tortilla
2 T Mozzarella Cheese

First you have to make the dressing for the wrap. It's super easy. Combine 5 oz of Greek yogurt with chopped cilantro (1 tablespoon) and powdered ranch dressing (1-2 teaspoons). Start with a small amount of both the powder and cilantro and increase until it tastes delicious. Spread 1 tablespoon on to your flour tortilla
