Birdie Corn Bread

Start with:

• Basic Corn Bread recipe or mix (any prepared mix is fine or a recipe from scratch works well also)

Then, add the following to corn bread batter:

• 2 cups of ground dog/cat food

• 1 cup peanut butter

• 2 whole eggs (shell included)

• 1/2 cup dried or fresh berries

• 1/2 cup dried or fresh veggies (such as corn, peas, squash, spinach, carrot)

Optional Additions:

• Small jar of fruit or veggie baby food

• 1 Tbsp spirulina

• 1-2 Tbsp olive oil

Most recipes call for baking at 350 for 15-20 minutes, but please see your recipe or mix instructions for details.
