We Like Peanut Butter...A lot.

Sadie has several foods she can smell from any corner of the house when they are brought out in the kitchen: apples, yogurt, celery and most importantly peanut butter. She can't handle life when peanut butter is brought out & she isn't getting any of it. Which wrapping a doggy pill in it, she swallows it quickly, so that's good, but when baking for humans, it's not so good. But I found some tasty treats for her & for us using peanut butter, here you go!

Humans:
No Bake Peanut Butter Oat Squares
Ingredients:
1 cup peanut butter (creamy is better than chunky)
1/2 cup honey
3 cups rolled (old fashioned) oats

Directions:

1. Spray a 9x9 pan. 
2. Melt the peanut butter and honey together until smooth, either in the microwave or stove top. Combine mixture with oats.
3. Press into prepared pan. Place in refrigerator until set. 
4. Cut & enjoy!

Note: we store them in the fridge to avoid a soft sticky mess when we eat them.

Dogs: (works in human smoothies too:))
Homemade PB & Yogurt bite-size treats
Ingredients:
2 cups plain yogurt
1 cup creamy peanut butter
1 zip-lock bag

Directions:

1. Mix the yogurt and peanut butter together until smooth. 
2. Scoop the mixture into the zip-lock bag.  Press air out and seal.  Push the mixture toward on of the bottom edges of the bag, then twist to upper corner to make a "frosting bag."  Carefully snip the corner of the bag.
3. Use your frosting bag to drop nickle to quarter sized dots of the mixture on a cookie sheet (Make sure the pan you use will fit in your freezer.).
4. Once the sheet is full, put it in your freezer for at least 30 minutes (or until your bites are hardened).  Transfer your bites to a freezer-safe container, and make sure to keep them frozen.
