Brewer gets yogurt and peanut butter on a pretty regular basis. Served together as a frozen treat sounds kind of fun...

Thanks for sharing.

Heck with the dogs I'm eating'em

Sounds perfect! Definitely going to have to give them a try.

Cutting up bananas and freezing them in the middle of plain non-fat yogurt is also a good treat. Or mash up ripe bananas and mix with yogurt and put in ice cube trays. You can even drop a little pumpkin into yogurt and freezing them - another yummy treat - in the center of frozen yogurt, they get pumpkin. Or, you can cook down apples, mash them and freeze them or mix with yogurt and freeze, or mix with mashed banana and freeze.

All kinds of healthy, cool summer treats!

This plus peanut butter and I think you are onto something.

Len, I think you are right...forget the dogs!!!

I ran across an ice cube tray in the shape of bones that I use to make their treats.

Why else would I name them after Filipino FOODS!

Adobo was the entree and Biko was dessert.



(Dr. Google can explain it all)

I'm going to name my next two Lumpia and Bibinka...Or maybe Laulau and Ahi Poke...

Stop making me laugh guys... I'm in bed and my fiancé keeps telling me I'm being loud. Baha...i would never eat my dogs...too skinny

Kong has a frozen treat option now, it's actually a Bon ice cube tray..we picked one up for the pups too! For whatever reason our dogs LOVE strawberries. S we put strawberries in the plain yogurt and freeze. Yum.

I am so stopping at the store on my way home. These seem amazing for the dogs and I may have to try them myself. YUM!!!
Keep the receipes coming. PLEASE!!

Claudia where did you get that bone ice tray?? thats perfect for treats!!

Couple things came up on eBay. Search: "dog bone ice tray"

Amazon has several dog bone trays.

Thanks for the recipes! I'll have to give them a try. I saw a similar ice tray at PetSmart the other day.

Thanks for the great ideas. I'll try these when the weather warms up!

I made these about a month ago, they kept very well and Tika was crazy for them. Every time we move the tin (even if it was just pushing it out of the way) she perked up. (I put very minimal salt)
