GUESTS WELCOME

AWARDS!!

If you are eligible for an award for 2016 please get me your info as soon as possible. If you have an old style plaque, the kind with the plates with the white tape on them, please bring me the entire plaque. The new style plates DO NOT fit the old plaques properly. It is MUCH easier for our engraver to make adjustments to plates to fit plaques if she has the whole thing. If anyone has any questions please feel free to contact me via e-mail or by phone or bring your “stuff” to the meeting!

The info and forms will be attached to an email with the Otter Tales.

Winterfest was great fun, as always!

A Recipe for Your Dog

VALENTINE RED BELL PEPPER COOKIES

Red bell peppers are a surprising favorite for many dogs who have developed a taste for several different fruits and vegetables. Bell peppers don't produce capsaicin, so they're not hot like others in the pepper family.

YIELDS: About 18 (3") cookies

1/2 red bell pepper

1/4 cup Chicken Broth

2 eggs

2 tablespoons low-fat plain yogurt

2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil

3-1/2 cups rice flour

1/2 cup chopped, cooked chicken

1 cup minced carrots

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a cookie sheet.

Wash red bell pepper; remove and discard stem, core, and seeds. Dice

In a large bowl, add broth, eggs, yogurt, and olive oil to flour; stir slowly. Add in chicken and vegetables, stirring until mixed.

Use a spoon or melon baller to divide dough into golf ball-size balls. Roll, then flatten with the back of a fork ongreased cookie sheet.

Bake for 30 minutes. Cool completely on a drying rack,then refrigerate. Refrigerate for 3 days or freeze in an

airtight container for up to 6 months.
