Spike's Birdie Bread
My parrot Spike is a picky eater.
He doesn't like new food and won't eat pellets, no matter how I
try to give them to him. So this is his usual dinner.
Ingredients:
3 cups mixed chopped veggies (whichever you want, as small as
is neccessary for your parrot - I food process mine very small)
2 jars organic babyfood, one with a protein, one with carrots
or swet potatoes
1 egg (beat in food processor with shell)
1 cup Arrowhead Mills Multigrain pancake & waffle mix or whole
wheat flour
1 cup rolled oats, uncooked
1 cup pellets (optional)
Directions:
- Mix all ingredients together, adding additional pancake &
waffle mix or whole wheat flour if needed.
- Spread in greased 8"x8" pan and bake at 375° for
20-35 minutes (until dry all the way through - it will pull away
from the edges of the pan)
- Cut into bird-appropriate-sized peices and freeze until needed.
Note: for a special treat, mix in 1 tsp. dried red pepper flakes
and/or 1 clove garlic.
