How to Serve Allprovide

Feeding Allprovide:

Many of us find our pets can be reluctant or picky eaters, and have a hard time finding food they love. Some of us find joy in serving a freshly cooked meal to our pets. You can feed our ready-to-serve Gently Cooked Recipes, or gently cook our Raw Recipes yourself. Gently Cooked fresh foods are a great option if you have concerns about feeding Raw or even just a picky eater.

Serve with any liquid released during cooking, and your pet’s dinner will retain its natural nutrients. 

Easy Cooking Instructions:

  1. Defrost frozen pouches in the refrigerator or on the counter.
  2. Preheat a nonstick skillet or pan on the stovetop low to medium heat. Add a splash of water or Broth for extra moisture.
  3. Open the pouch and add to the pan.
  4. Stir regularly. Cook gently for 3 to 5 minutes or until meat is lightly cooked (do not “brown” the meat). You just want the “pink” out.
  5. Cool completely before serving. Mix back in any separated liquids.
  6. Store in a covered container in the refrigerator for up to 7 days.

 

Remember:

  • When transitioning to any new food it is best to make the change over a few days.
  • If mixing with a kibble, it’s a good idea to soak the kibble in warm water or appropriate liquid (like bone broth) before mixing with Allprovide.
  • The addition of a probiotic or a small amount of canned pumpkin may also be helpful during the transition.  

When handling any raw meat, there are simple tips to reduce potential exposure to bacteria:

  • Wash your hands thoroughly after handling Allprovide, or any raw meat.
  • Wash your pet’s bowl with hot soapy water after each use.
  • Wipe down and wash any surfaces used to prepare your pet’s meal with an antibacterial soap or cleaner.
  • Store any raw meat at the bottom of your fridge, preferably in an air-tight sealed container – this avoids any drips and cross-contamination.
  • Do not leave your pet’s food out for an extensive length of time. If not eaten within thirty minutes or more, cover the bowl and put it back in the fridge. 
  • We recommend pre-portioning and freezing any extra food you don’t plan to feed after 72 hours of defrosting.
  • Re-portioned, frozen food is best offered up to 3 months after freezing for optimal nutrition.
