Dog treats
Being coeliac I've noticed a fashion for cottage cheese flatbread, which I have tried (very nice! Tasty, high protein, fresh ingredients)
So I thought I would try making dog treats with cottage cheese instead of flour. I usually make pichard cake which the dogs love, but I didn't have any pilchards so used a tin of salmon, half a pot of cottage cheese and an egg. Mix, spread, bake and cut. Dogs love it!
