Frittata Bravo: Treats for High Energy Dogs
Here is a recipe for high-fat, high-protein, healthy treats for dogs who are very active or need to gain weight.
Lizzy Meyer is BioStar’s Canine Specialist, and from her Happy Place, aka her kitchen, we bring you… “Frittata Bravo”!

You can use this recipe for “mini muffins” for senior dogs who do not need to gain weight, too.
Senior dogs need treats too
Mix together in a food processor, blender, or by hand:
1 dozen organic eggs (pastured or yard eggs preferred – “happy-chicken eggs”)
¼ cup organic grated sharp cheddar cheese (my dogs do best with goat cheddar)
¼ cup organic almond flour
¼ cup organic plain, unsweetened coconut shreds
PLUS VEGGIES and garnish:
(this can be varied from recipe to recipe!)
¼ cup chopped organic kale
¼ cup chopped organic dandelion greens
a teaspoon of organic basil or dried dill
OPTIONAL:
- Handful of chia seeds
- Pinch of pink Himalayan salt

Pour into a greased muffin tin, bake at 350ºF for about 12-15 minutes until set and not runny.
These store in the fridge for a couple of days and freeze well.
“I’ve always loved BioStar’s attitude towards whole food nutrition since its inception. I’ve used their products for so many years for horses and dogs and I love helping people learn about whole food and how beneficial it can be. I really like the empowering role and I like teaching and encouraging people. I like helping them learn to ask questions regarding what they’re feeding and letting them discover their own next step for their animals. I feel better about that than just saying, ‘Here, use this product for this issue your animal’s having.’ That does not get to the root issue. It also does not empower someone to think independently or be a better caregiver for their dog. I like the freedom to look at the whole picture with the customer and help them to see what they can change to help their dog.”
