Easy Salmon Treats

Hey all, I saw some treat recipes floating around, and wanted to share a recipe I have made many many times ( I used to own a dog treat bakery and sell at farmers markets, and these were one of the best sellers!) I would take salmon-(walmart sometimes has the frozen filets for pretty cheap) or duck or any protein you want and put it in the food processor along with sweet potatoes. Grind it up pretty well, but doesn't need to be super smooth. Spoon the mixture into an old squeeze bottle like a ketchup or mayo bottle and then squeeze little strips of it or nuggets onto a baking sheet with parchment paper. Bake at a really low temp for a few hours ( I had used a dehydrator when I did these, so don't know exact time or temp-you can google using your oven as a dehydrator and it will give you more info). Essentially you really want to dry them out as best you can rather than "cook" them and they will keep longer this w ay. No grains or eggs or any additional ingredients needed, although you can add oatmeal or carrots or anything you want-just make sure it is ground up enough to fit through squeeze bottle!
