BROCOILI BAKE
boil a few boneless skinless chicken breasts, a bag of frozen broccoli
and a bag of frozen carrots until everything is cooked through, about
15 – 20 minutes. Drain all but a cup or two of liquid and then put the
entire mixture through the food processor or blender.
Seal up the small hole on the top , using a dab
of peanut butter. Spoon blended mixture into the KONG toys. Place them
upright in a tray and then freeze the whole tray.
