Gizzards & Hearts Medley



















This makes a great inexpensive topping for kibble.  It can be used as a tasty meal now and then, just remember it does not have all of the nutrients and minerals dogs need on a daily basis.  It can even be used for training treats but I find it rather oily to handle.

  • 1 1/4 lbs (2 ½ cups) chicken gizzards and hearts*
  • 3 Tbsp olive oil
  • ½ tsp parsley
  • ½ tsp ground ginger
  • 1 tsp rosemary
  • ½ cup sun dried tomatoes** (optional)
I like to cut the meat into smaller pieces but it isn't necessary.  Just place all of the ingredients in a large bowl and use your hands to mix thoroughly.


Pour mixture onto a foil lined jelly pan and spread out to make one layer.


Bake at 350 degrees for 25 minutes until golden brown.  This can be stored in the refrigerator for a few days.


* Sometimes I add chopped up liver to the mix.
**  I rehydrate the dried tomatoes in water for about thirty minutes then drain.  Never use green tomatoes!
