Salmon
Treats
1 8 oz. can salmon with juice
1/2 cup chopped parsley
3 eggs, shells included
1/2 cup sesame seeds ground up in coffee grinder
1/2 cup flax seeds ground up in coffee grinder
2-3 cups potato flour Put these ingredients into a food processor, mix VERY
WELL. Pour potato flour through the opening while the motor is running. I can't
tell you exactly how much, but I would guess about 2-3 cups. When the dough
forms, like a pie curst, and rolls into a ball it is ready to take out.
Dump this mess onto potato floured counter or board. Knead more flour into this
and when it is a rolled out cookie consistency, it is ready to roll out into
about 14 inch thick. I use a pizza cutter to roll our long strips and then cut
crosswise to make small squares . If you want FANCY you may use a cookie cutter.
Bake on cookie sheets, sprayed Pam or line the sheet with parchment paper. I put
in as many as will fit. Usually two whole cookie sheets suffices. I bake this in
a 375º oven for 20 min. Turn and rotate the cookie sheets and bake about 10
more minutes. You can make them as soft or as hard as you want.

small bowl. In food processor, whirr tuna with the oil, and water then add all
the rest of ingredient. Pulse til mixture forms a ball, Pulse to knead for 2-3
minutes. Knead on floured surface till it forms a soft ball of dough. Roll out
to a 1/8"-1/4" thickness. Cut into shapes. Bake on lightly greased
cookie sheet , at 350 for 20-25 minutes. Cool completely.
