Lowes Hotels Pet Food Recipes

With the recent rat poison scare for pet owners, Loews Hotels has decided to make their pet food recipes public. The menu items taken from the chain’s Loews Loves Pets Room Service Menu were developed by Loews Hotels Executive Chef Marc Ehrler (which is a little bizarre). Menu items include Bow Wow Tenderloin of Beef and Chow Hound Chicken for dogs, as well as Whisker Licking Liver and Kitty’s Salmon Supreme for cats. There’s even a dish especially designed to help with jet lag for traveling pets – Grrreat Vegetable Feast which is appropriate for cats and dogs. I can’t vouch for the taste of the following, but here goes:

Bow Wow Tenderloin of Beef (serves 4) [4 dogs?]

1 lb. ground filet mignon
4 large eggs
8 cups brown rice
12 slices white bread, crusts removed and crumbled

* Preheat 10″ saute pan. Add ground beef and braise until fully cooked.
* Remove from stove, discard grease and reserve.
* Cook eggs in boiling water for 12-14 minutes. Let cool and peel.
* Crumble eggs and add to pan with cooked beef. Reserve mixture.
* In a separate saucepan, boil rice in unsalted water until tender. Let cool.
* Add rice to beef and egg mixture. Add crumbled white bread to mixture.
* Serve when cool.

(This dish can be made the day before and refrigerated, but must be warmed to room temperature before serving.)

Chow Hound Chicken (serves 4) [Again, 4 dogs? WTF?]

1 lb. chicken breast
4 cups frozen diced carrots (defrosted)
4 cups frozen diced green beans (defrosted)
1 tsp. Vegetable oil

* Preheat 10″ saute pan. Saute chicken in vegetable oil until thoroughly cooked. Remove and let cool.
* Add carrots and green beans to pan and cook until warm. Set aside.
* Once the chicken is cool, shred into small pieces. Mix with carrots and green beans.
* Serve at room temperature.
