This week, Best Bully Sticks brings you a no-fuss recipe: 1-Ingredient Sweet Potato Treats. These yummy, healthy and easy dog snacks come from Sharon at Perfect Parties.com. Sharon began whipping up dog treats because when she adopted her Cane Corso, Avalanche's Cinizia Juniper Belle, or Cinzia for short.  

When Cinzia became the newest member of our family, I began baking treats for her. I love baking homemade dog treats because I know exactly what ingredients are going into Cinzia’s treats.  I can add the flavors she enjoys and since they are homemade, the ingredients are fresh and preservative free. One of her favorite snacks is the Sweet Potato Treats.

Here is Sharon & Cinzia’s 1-Ingredient Sweet Potato Treats recipe!

Ingredients
3 Large Sweet Potatoes: washed and dried about the same shape/size works best

Directions
1. Preheat oven to 250 degrees

2. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

3. Cut your sweet potato in half lengthwise.

4. Place flat side of halved potato onto your cutting board and slice into 1/3 inch lengthwise pieces. Do not cut thinner than 1/4 inch.

5. Place them on the prepared baking sheet.

6. Bake for 3 hours turning over halfway through.

7. Cool completely on a wire rack. 

Storage
Keep refrigerated up to two weeks. Store the additional in the freezer up to 4 months.

A BIG thank you to Sharon at Perfect Parties.com and her dog Cinzia for sharing this wonderful recipe with us!

Plato Sweet Potato Dog Treats

We are proud to announce the release of a new and exciting dog chew from Plato Pet Treats.  Plato has done it again, by releasing yet another excellent dog chew in their already impressive lineup.  These sweet potato dog treats are thick cut slabs of sweet potato that are made in the United States.

The sweet potato slabs are a thick crinckle cut and have added pro biotics which aid in promoting a healthy digestive tract in dogs.  The following is taken directly from the manufacturer:

"I yam what I yam and that's all that I yam" is all well and good for Popeye. But there's more than meets the eye with our Sweet Potato treats. A special pro-biotic coating, for example, to help maintain healthy digestion. And like all Framers Market treats, they're slow-roasted, to give them a meaty flavor dogs can't resist.

INGREDIENTS
Sweet potato, egg, salt, bacillus subtilis.

Available in handy 16-oz resealable pouches.

NUTRITIONAL BENEFITS
Contains pro-biotics – helps maintain a healthy gastro-intestinal tract.
Naturally high in beneficial antioxidant vitamins such as beta-carotene, vitamin B6, and vitamin C.
All-natural.

We are sure that these will be another big success as with the rest of the Plato Dog Treats line!
