Check Oprah for dog food recipes

Posted By: NDmt on 2007-08-22
In Reply to: Is it really true? - Food Pets Die For

She had a repeat show on this week about dog training and dog food recipes. She also had an author on, referencing his book on wholesome foods for pets. I would check her website out for sure. I know we have been scared for our dogs after the recent pet food scare. Our vet previously had recommended feeding our dogs plain hamburger and rice. They love it, but we don't feed them that all the time.

My DH spent his check and we have no money for food this week. :(
the jerk
Good advice was given here. Suggest vet check-up for kitty needs vet check. sm
I've had 2 females over the years who developed stones/crystals in urine or UTIs.  Both of them started spraying inappropriately.  Never had a female spray inappropriately other than in these instances.  They go into spasm and can't help themselves.  If it is a urinary problem, eventually you may see slight pink-tinged spray if it gets that far untreated due to the irritation from constantly trying to pee.  One more thought is if the kitty is not sick, maybe the other cat won't let her use the litter box for some reason.  Maybe set up another box for her.
It's nice, but food prices insane and food is really bad,
xx
My cat only eats dog food and won't eat cat food or even tuna.
LOL
I am using Angel Food Network for help with food (sm)
Being much more careful not to waste food. No more fast food. Soda only if bought in a two-liter bottle, not singles or fountain. Most of my money waste was spent on food.

recipes

We are going to a family reunion this weekend and I'm looking for some new ideas for something to take.  Not anything too complicated since I work full time at home with 4 kids plus mother-in-law and 2 extra family members will be here tonight from Arizona and staying with us.  Can be anything - dessert, side, main etc.  Just having a hard time coming up with anything really yummy to feed a big group.  Have lots of chicken in the freezer so maybe something down that line. Thanks!!


Why would you want recipes when
you find disgusting? That is very strange.
Looking for recipes
Okay - i'm looking for really yummy dinner recipes that are very cost-effective.  During the week it's mainly me and my 7-year-old and I'm sick of spaghettios, hot dogs, and chicken nuggets.  Hubby is home on weekends but I get tired of making the same things every weekend, not to mention the cost of groceries sometimes makes it difficult to have the "standard" meat, potatoes, veggie, bread dinner!  TIA
Looking for recipes for...

microwave candies or relatively foolproof stove-top or oven methods, preferrably ones that have been tested.   I typically bake and decorate iced cake-mix cookies and make up gift boxes for neighbors, friends, the mailman, etc.,  but candies would be a nice addition...fudge, divinity, pralines, nut brittles, killer brownies or anything else you may have in your repertoire would be appreciated. 


No fan of either her or Oprah but having said that
I was so surprised when Rachael took on that type of show. She has several shows on Food NW and Oprah probably would have liked to have found her (as in Dr. Phil) but not so, too big a person in her own right before. Books, several shows on Food, well known before Oprah. Oprah played a point in putting her on that show, probably produces the newer show. I understand you are not really into Rachael but she was a talent and had already made it big longgggggggg before Oprah.
Oprah? What would anything she would say
?
No, no Oprah
Never said there was "nothing" either. It's just not what people think it is. Fairy tales are for children and heII was invented by poets, Dante to be specific.

BOO!!
Try Oprah.com
I missed what your issues are, but Oprah has a lot of great resources and seminar-type things on her site.

I know what you are saying. When it comes down to it, we are all alone. Even those who really care can only do so much.

I have been having a rough time pretty much for a couple of years. Sometimes you wonder what it's all about. Don't give up though, you just never know when something might change for the good!

Found some recipes for you :)

many many rotel recipes
go to the below link and enjoy. Ro-tel is a wonderful addition to almost any recipe.

http://www.texmex.net/Rotel/main.htm

Also for an added idea take a brick of softened cream cheese and pour some mexican Ro-tel on and serve with chips. Also add some cooked ground sausage to the Velveeta with Ro-tel.

Rotal adn Velveeta are staples in my home and I live in WA and I can buy it at any major grocery store.

HAVE A GREAT HOLIDAY!!!!
Northpole recipes

I just received an email with some Northpole recipes.  I thought I would share. 


I was given this link:


www.northpole.com/kitchen/cookbook


have fun!


Lots of recipes at
foodtv.com  Everything you ever wanted.
cooking/recipes
Is there a cooking or recipes board available - just curious.
Any recipes/ideas for
leftover roast, besides stew!
Tripe recipes
If you're really interested in tripe recipes there are some in Maya Angelou's cookbook. I haven't tried any of them so I have no idea how good they are.
bread recipes
Would the kind lady who posted her bread recipes please reply to me, even if it is my private e-mail address,  with the recipes that she had for 4 loaves of bread.  My hard drive crashed and even though I copied the recipe  to my word expander, I was not able to print it out.
So, where's those cookie recipes?
Go ahead flood the board with cookie recipes. I can handle it.. I can bake every one of them, while I am listening to one dictator flip pages, and the other pausing..c'mon give me whatcha got.  But seriously, I need some new ideas for the kids because pop n fresh dough holiday cookie cut outs.  PS: See, I am finally getting in the holiday spirit.
No recipes here, just wanted to say...
Glad you're gettin' in the spirit and feeling better! 
Leftover ham recipes?
I had a big spiral ham Christmas Eve buffet but too much other food and a large portion, over half, not touched. I never leave my food out long, asked everyone if they were sure they didn't want more, put it in the fridge with intent to send some home with them but they had so many cookies, etc., to take that they didn't take any. I am going to a party tomorrow and wondered if along with what I am bringing, should I grind some ham up and make a ham salad to be put on nice crackers or rolls? I don't want it to look like I'm pushing leftover ham from Christmas but it will only be the 6th day and it's only the two of us here, so I hate to waste it. I'm not sure if I should just skip the idea or use it up. I don't want to look like an old cheapo.
Yummy Recipes
I bought two Foster Farms Chickens, on sale, not over $5.00, well I got three meals out of those two chickens, cut each up for frying the best parts, made chicken soup with the less desirable parts, back, etc. adding my last frozen pack of tomatoes from DH garden last summer, and other veggies, bow tie pasta, sprinkled with fresh chopped parsley and parmesan, Yummie.  The other two packages, one will be oven fried chicken, recipe on breadcrumb container and the other from my Campbell's Soup Cookbook, something or other.  Not bad for the price!
anybody have any good dip recipes
I bought a couple bags of those cornchips called scoops.  Last night I made guacamole but now I've got 1 and 1/2 bags of chips left.  Anyone have any good ideas of things I could use them for? 
New dinner recipes
Hey all........I am sitting here (before lunch) thinking what the heck I'm going to make for dinner....I am sooooo tired of making the same things, week after week.....anyone have any new, easy dinner recipes??  Maybe your same-old will be new to me! 
There are a lot of recipes for microwave
fudge floating around. I don't have one but the ones I have eaten are very good.
fudge recipes
Thanks for all the good recipes.  My mother used to be the "queen of candy making" until she got Alzheimer's but I never wrote down her recipes if she ever had one; and of course could not remember how she made it or the variations - she just "winged it" and I stirred it because she had severe arthritis in her hands.  Thanks for sharing!
I would think Dr. Phil & Oprah would have
covered these topics. They might even have that sort of information on their websites. Your mother might believe them over these men. Or undoubtedly Reader's Digest. If one of my parents were acting like this I'd seriously think they were getting something like Alzheimers, losing their good judgement.
it's now cuz Oprah is sponsoring her....BIG $$ now
x
She was also on Oprah yesterday
singing with Kelly Clarkson and Justin Limberlake, promoting her Duets with Rebba, I think that is what it is called, album. Think I will buy it. She is great. Also loved the sitcom, especially her with her ex and Barbara Jean. Very funny.
Just saw a commercial for Oprah about how
to talk to your kids about divorce. I think it said it will be on next Wednesday.
Oprah's BIG GIVE sm

I love that show.  I think it is a great reality show that helps others.  If you saw it last week do you think Oprah will help the family that was promised money for funeral costs and the guy did not come through for the family.  I think so. 


Oprah or Ellen?

Oprah today

Was that a total tearjerker today on her show with the puppy mills?  I just recently found out about puppy mills as I was trying to adopt a cocker spaniel from a rescue that deals with cockers.  I had to fill out a long application.  They checked a lot of references, called my previous vet, previous groomer, etc. Then they had to do a home visit. The lady that did the home visit told me some very sad stories about a puppy mill where they went in at night and tried to rescue some dogs away from the place.  She rescued one that only weighed 5 pounds that they used to breed. How sick are these places.  She said that the Amish- are very well known for this. She told me of a story that a man through a alive dog in a Goodwill bin because he was done with the breeding process and thank God the next day a worker heard the poor thing crying.  I rescued 2 cockers and could not be happier.  I do not know where they came from but they are so loving. I think the government needs to get involved and shut these places down. They are breeding thousands of dogs and meanwhile we are killing hundreds a day all over the US. Does that make any sense? Please no one buy from a PET STORE.  If you want a pet go to PETFINDER.COM and look up the breed, you want and you will see pictures of all kinds in all the US


 


 


Oprah's show
I did watch it today...I thought I would have problems as I cannot watch most shows that show how animals are abused.  I thought it was very informative and discrete.  I will NEVER buy from a pet shop again although I got my buddy from a pet shop..went in for a hamster and came out with a 3 week old kitten in a cage by himself.  He used the litter box right away with no problems.  He is now 14 years old and is still not able to groom himself properly.  He goes against his hair and I just laugh and tell him how handsome he is - even though his hair is sticking up with spit all over.  He was not with his mom to learn.  He has other problems as being very dependent and sucking on my shirt...again his mom was not there and I am his mom.  He constantly "kneads" on me and I tell him it is Saturday and he does not have to make the donuts.  All kidding aside, it is very sad how these babies are taken away from their mom so soon.  It amazes me how money is SO important yet the babies and moms are put aside as money makers.  I love my Sim but he has a lot a problems probably due to being taken away from his mom so soon.  The next cat or dog I get will DEFINITELY be from a shelter, and a dog or cat that will be hard to place.  Please everybody, the pups and kittens are easy to place, give a home to the ones who are blind, deaf, are HIV, etc., they are so lovable....seems they know they have problems and will give you the love as you give them!!  ADOPT THE UNADOPTABLE!!! 
Well Oprah loved it! I want to see it.
Maybe tomorrow. 
Oprah probably does not have to listen to all the
Indian speakers I have to day after day.
Need some Xmas goodies recipes..
Looking for recipes to make some fairly easy yet yummy Christmas goodies for gift giving.  No heavy baking or long recipes please.  Stuff along the lines of snack mixes, that powdered sugar "puppy chow" (I think that's what it's called lol), etc.  Stuff that can be made in large batches ahead of time and not needing refrigeration.  There are so many great cooks out here..so this is the first place I thought of to get some great ideas.  Thanks ahead to all who respond!! :)
Anyway cook using Rachel Ray's recipes? sm
I'm always looking to try something different and her 30 minute meals sure look tasty and easy.
I love her recipes, but WAY too many ingredients
I had a bunch of her books but ended up selling them on ebay cuz I never had all the ingredients on hand and didn't want to spend a fortune getting them.
Try this site...you can mix and match the different recipes.... : )

Anyone got good low-cal doggie recipes?

I'm looking for both snack and meal recipes for an older dog that's kind of sedentary but LOVES to eat.  I'm convinced the food at the grocery store is either highly caloric or filled with a bunch of junk.


Thanks for your suggestions!


Recipes for a newlywed game!!! SM
Hey gang. I've been reading all of your posts about different recipes. I've been married about a year and a half and I'm sad to say that I only have about 10 meals that I know I can make. My problem is...I'm just not creative enough to think up of different things. So, I thought not only as a helpful tool for me, but also for others, could you please post your "go-to" meal for either breakfast, lunch or dinner and lets see how many recipes we can share with each other. Thanks so much and I'll start...

My favorite thing to make for dinner is beef stroganoff. I take about a pound of tenderized stew beef and about a 1/4 pound of mushrooms and brown them in a pan. Then I add two packages of McCormick stroganoff mix (I get mine from Safeway) along with 10 ounces of sour cream. I cook this down until it is nice and thick. Then I pour it over egg noodles! SOO SOO SOO good. Pair it with some garlic bread (my husband's specialty) and you're good to go!

Now...lets see what else we can come up with to help each other out (especially me...lol).

Thanks ladies!!!
I saw that on Oprah...so simple yet powerful!...
Especially when that married couple were at a stand still and then watched The Secret. Now, they have passion again for each other and are so happy. Something as simple as being grateful for what you have, then better things will come. I want to check that movie out.
That's the big secret? I saw some of that Oprah and got bored.
I have always been grateful for what I have, and no better things are coming my way, I can assure you. Maybe it's some sort of brainwash...with hidden subliminal messages. LOL
Anybody wath The Secret on Oprah.

Any experiences with this.  I am having a great time.
