Add some fresh spinach to their food. You will be amazed at how much your dog will enjoy these foods...and better to serve the veggies raw rather than cooked...it loses its minerals and vitamins.
There are times your dog will eat grass. Many folks believe its only to help them purge something unsettling....but often enough its because they are lacking the greens in their diet. Bone Appetit ! (couldnt help myself)

I don't really like grains but I am using some brown rice. Maybe 20%. I also buy bulk foods and bought a mixed bean mix and will give them beans twice a week for dinner with some rice and veggies. They will still get a small piece of raw chicken in the AM.
I wish I could do rabbit but the whole bunny thing sticks in my head. For some reason I can do chicken but not bunny or goat. I use to think after so many years living in the country I would get over this but I don't seem to.
