Becoming Betty: Homemade Doggie Treats

pictures posted in draft 4/23/15 - text added 10/13/15

So I totally forgot about adding text to this post!  This was the first time I made Zed homemade treats.  I had a bunch of bananas and looked up some recipes for doggy treats.  This recipe was so easy and instead of making the rolled out "stars" as in the original blog/recipe post, I just did drop cookies.  You really think Zed cares?

Since Zed's diagnosis, I have made these several times since they are probably better than store bought.

The mix - tastes very much like banana

"You making that for me mama?"

Puppy likes raw dough too!

Ready for the oven

And done!

Puppy likes them!

Adventures in being Healthy: SlenderFX shake

Zed also liked the SlenderFX shake.

Becoming Betty: Crockpot Honey Sesame Chicken

So I knew today that I was going to use the left over chicken that we had in the frig for dinner tonight, but I didn't know what I was going to make with it.

At first I thought I would do my bbq pineapple chicken, but then a friend posted this recipe on Facebook.

I checked it out and had all of the ingredients.

The sauce

After 4 hours in the slow cooker.

After cornstarch was added - it was supposed to thicken up but really didn't.  I didn't bother trying to get it any thicker either.

Chicken back in the cooker until hubby got home.  I didn't cut the chicken in cubes like it said either.

Finished product!

This was really easy to make and we both liked it.  I'll definitely make it again.
