If you’re considering cooking that perfect Thanksgiving feast for your dog or cat, make sure they’re getting good nutrition from the right ingredients. How about making them Halo Spot’s Stew, Thanksgiving-style?

Halo’s always given out its most famous recipe as a gift to those noble souls who cook for their pets. The original Halo Spot’s Stew calls for chicken (see the link below). But turkey and chicken have very similar protein, fat and calorie content. So they are interchangeable! So if you have some extra (or leftover) turkey, try substituting turkey for chicken in the recipe below. And Happy Thanksgiving!

Click here for the Original Halo Spot’s Stew recipe, and don’t be afraid to substitute turkey!

Yes, we’re happy to give away our most famous recipe because it helps keep animals well! Loyal web site visitors knew they could always find the recipe for Halo Spot’s Stew on our free recipes page. But we’re thankful Animal Wellness magazine is helping spread the word. Here’s what their editor had to say:

“If you’re like us here at the magazine, you enjoy celebrating special occasions with your dog or cat. Halo, Purely for Pets sent us this healthy Thanksgiving recipe to try. It was originally formulated when company founder Andi Brown was struggling with healthy issues and looking for something she could make in her own kitchen using grocery store ingredients (yes, people can eat it too). Happy Thanksgiving!”

It warms our hearts when, like Andi for her cat Spot, people cook wholesome, nutritious meals for their four-legged loved ones. Of course, many of us rely on the chefs at Halo to do the cooking for them!

See the Halo News page for a link to the recipe in Animal Wellness.

“Ellen became part owner with Halo in hopes of animals ‘becoming the healthiest they can be.’ You would not want to fill your own body with toxins, so why would you do it to your animals? Halo is one of the healthiest pet foods on the market right now,” according to Dogasaur.com. They also ask – and answer – the question asked by all of us who feed Halo: “Wouldn’t you feel better about feeding your pet food that you would actually eat? I know I would!”

Davey the dog’s mom switched to Halo for an important reason:

“We regularly supplement Davey’s daily diet with things like carrots, berries, apples and other whole foods,” she writes on her blog.

“So having an actual whole food in Davey’s daily meal makes me feel great about what I feed him,” she writes. “The Halo dry food ingredient list reads like a healthy grocery list and not a chemistry experiment.”

Davey, we hope you are enjoying your wholesome, well-rounded meals!!
