With Hummus and Polenta

1 daily serving for a 15kg dog (33 lb)

Making your own dog food is simple and takes no longer than preparing your own meals. This Carrot Chickpea Bowl with Hummus and Polenta is a good example of a balanced, easy dish.

Carrots are in season from early summer and available fresh and locally throughout the summer. It is also worth a visit to weekly markets, as fruit and vegetables from nearby cultivation are often available there.

And in winter there are winter carrots, which are grown late, harvested late and then put into storage.

This way we also have the delicious vital substance bombs available in the winter months. Carrots are full of precious nutrients, such as beta-carotene and dietary fibres like pectin, which have a positive effect on digestion. Chickpeas also provide valuable protein and are a great source of iron.
