July 2026: Recipe of the Month
Topic: Lulu’s Zen Comfort Blend
This gentle, nutrient-dense calming aid is designed for rescues transitioning from high-stress, malnourished backgrounds to a safe environment.
Ingredients:
2 ripe bananas (for potassium and gentle calories)
1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce (for fiber and gentle sweetness)
1/2 tsp dried chamomile (caffeine-free, for natural calming properties)
Method:
Peel the bananas and break them into chunks for easy blending.
Add bananas, applesauce, and dried chamomile to a blender.
Blend on high until completely smooth and creamy.
Serve immediately as a topper or calming snack.
For a longer-lasting reward, portion into small containers or silicone molds and freeze.
Nurse's Tip:
This is perfect for pups who are anxious at night. For dogs with "midnight energy," smear this on a Lick Mat to keep them busy and calm, allowing for better sleep.
Store:
Keep in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 2 months.
