Nourishment on the Road for Dogs and Humans

Sometimes when we are traveling, the dogs spend a lot of time begging for human food. Well, occasionally, I give in and hand them a little bite of whatever I am eating. But, my mother often makes special dog bones for her dog, so I figured I would give it a stab. I found a recipe on the Internet and changed it a little to suit my dogs' taste buds.

Now, the unintended consequence was that these doggie bones also make nice, healthful human food as well. I know, you are saying, "Ew, Gross, etc." But the main ingredients are whole wheat flour, mashed banana, and Grape Nuts cereal, so how bad can that be for you?

Banana Dog Biscuits

4 cups whole wheat flour
2 cups Grape Nuts cereal
2 cups mashed banana
3/4 cup of water
2 TBLS oil
2 TBLS sugar or honey
----------------------------
You mix all the ingedients in a large bowl. Roll out the dough to 1/4 inch thick. Cut with a cookie cutter (I used a round mason jar lid). Bake in the oven or in the convection oven for 35 minutes.

(I added sprinkled sugar to the top of some of these for us humans.)
