Natural. Organic. (CHEAP) Dog Treats.

I swear to you. I will never again purchase dog treats. This is an extremely easy and cheap dog treat recipe. All you need are sweet potatoes and parchment paper. 


1. Wash and dry the sweet potatoes. 
2. Preheat oven at 250.
3. Line cookie sheet with parchment paper. (don't let parchment paper overhang cookie sheet; it will catch fire.. found that out the hard way). Also, you can use wax paper but I think you would be much happier with the end result if you use parchment.
4. Cut the sweet potatoes (1/3" slices.. no smaller than 1/4') with a mandoline or use a knife. If they are too difficult to cut; stab it a couple times and stick it in the microwave for a minute or two.
5. Cut off one side of the sweet potato lengthwise, as close to the edge as possible. Cutting the side of the potato first allows you to turn the potato onto the flat surface you have created; making it easier to cut. 
6. Place them on the prepared cookie sheet. 
7. Cook for three hours; turning halfway through.
8. Cool completely. 


They will need to be refrigerated (for up to three weeks) or frozen for up to four months. You're dog will love them; I know mine do. Only problem is.. every time I open the fridge they freak out and think they need themselves some yummy stuff. ( :
