List of Ingredients



• 1 pound ground beef (or ground turkey or chicken)
  
• 1 (24-ounce) container cottage cheese
  
• 4 eggs
  
• ½ cup dry milk powder
  
• ¼ cup wheat germ
  
• 8 slices oatmeal bread, crumbled
  
• 8 cups cooked oatmeal
  
• 4 cups cooked brown rice
  






Instructions



1. In a very large mixing bowl, combine ground beef and cottage cheese; blend well. Add eggs, milk powder, and wheat germ, and mix. Then add the crumbled bread, oatmeal and brown rice, and mix well.
   
   
2. Divide among 10 small (5½-inch x 3½-inch) aluminum loaf pans. Place on a cookie sheet and bake at 350° for 1 hour. Cool at room temperature for 1 hour, then promptly refrigerate. This food is perishable, so don't store it in the refrigerator longer than 3 days.
   
   (Make sure to discard any food that has been sitting out for 30 minutes or longer.)
   
   






Final Comments


"We always froze all but one of the loaves.
To defrost: Let them stand in the refrigerator overnight. Crumble the meatloaf into a bowl, drizzle with some water, and microwave for 20 to 30 seconds until warm. Make sure the food doesn't have hot spots after microwaving, as your pet will gobble this up!"
