Senior Cancer Fighting Recipe

For gently cooked meals:

Preparing the ingredients:

1. Wash all fruits & vegetables.
2. Remove any skin, stems, or seeds from the fruits & vegetables prior to weighing.
3. Accurately measure all food ingredients in their raw state using your kitchen scale.
4. Since ingredients should be accurately measured in the state listed on the recipe (raw or gently cooked), add extra whitefish, oysters (if raw), and mushrooms to account for any change in weight after the cooking process.
5. Ground any nuts, seeds, grains, and produce in a food processor. If preferred, you may also add all of the meat to the food processor to finely ground your dog’s food.
6. If you do not have a food processor, finely chop any nuts, seeds, grains, and produce used in this recipe.
7. Keep the whitefish, oysters (if raw), and mushrooms to their own side so they can easily be remeasured later.
8. Practice safe food handling techniques, including washing your hands before and after handling raw meat. After cutting raw meats, wash all surfaces with hot, soapy water.

Gently cooking the ingredients:

Stovetop: 

1. You may add a small amount of filtered water to the pot to prevent burning or choose to not use any liquid.
2. Warm the pot on the lowest heat setting.
3. Add all food ingredients and cover the pot.
4. Keep the pot covered until desired doneness to prevent nutrient losses beyond what is accounted for in this recipe.
5. Once you’ve reached desired doneness, don’t forget to add any leftover cooking liquid to the food.

Slow Cooker: 

1. Add all food ingredients to the slow cooker without water.
2. Set the slow cooker to low heat.
3. Cover the pot.
4. Keep the pot covered until desired doneness to prevent nutrient losses beyond what is accounted for in this recipe. Cooking time may vary based on ingredients.
5. Once you’ve reached desired doneness, don’t forget to add any leftover cooking liquid to the food.

Remeasuring the necessary cooked ingredients:

1. Once the whitefish, oysters (if raw), and mushrooms have reached desired doneness, remeasure the ingredients in their cooked state using your kitchen scale.
2. Since ingredients should be accurately measured in the state listed on the recipe (raw or gently cooked), the measurements of your cooked whitefish, oysters, and mushrooms should now match the recipe.

Combining the food:

1. Combine the cooked whitefish, oysters, and mushrooms with the rest of your gently cooked food mix.
2. Mix thoroughly so all ingredients are evenly distributed.

Preparing the supplements:

1. Precisely measure the NOW Vegetarian Dry Vitamin E and choline.
   • Anything in a capsule (or tablet) is measured by number of capsules (tablets).
   • For example, if it says “Zinc, 15 mg / g, 1 cap = 1 g” and the recipe calls for 2 g, that means you should use 2 capsules.
2. Capsule/perle ingredients must be opened and poured into food mix for better distribution in multi-day batches.
3. Combine into a bowl and mix well.
4. Once the food has cooled, add the supplement mix in. It’s important that the supplement mix is evenly distributed and thoroughly mixed into the recipe when making a large batch of food.

Serving the food:

1. If you prepared a large batch of food, measure your dog’s mealtime portion using your kitchen scale.

Storing the food:

1. Divide the mixture into daily portions using your kitchen scale.
2. Store in airtight containers.
3. Keep portions for the next 3 days in the refrigerator.
4. Freeze the remaining portions for up to one month.
5. When serving from frozen, thaw food in the refrigerator overnight.

For raw meals:

Cooking the necessary ingredients:

1. Grab the whitefish, oysters (if raw), and mushrooms. These ingredients need to be cooked even if you’re serving this recipe raw.
   • Canned oysters that are boiled and packed in water (not smoked or in sauce) are fine as is. Otherwise, oysters must be cooked.
2. Since ingredients should be accurately measured in the state listed on the recipe (raw or gently cooked), add extra whitefish, oysters (if raw), and mushrooms to account for any change in weight after the cooking process.
3. If preferred, you may add all of the food to the food processor to finely ground your dog’s food.
4. Cook the whitefish, oysters (if raw), and mushrooms using one of the following methods.
