I didn't see a thread for pets...and knowing how many Planeteers have pets and love them...it seems remiss not to have a place to discuss our furry favorites

For my first contribution, a recipe that uses up leftover butternut squash into healthy dog treats

Butternut Squash Dog Treats
3/4 cup squash purée
2 eggs
2 Tbs. peanut butter
2 cups whole wheat flour
1/2 cup all-purpose flour for rolling

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Mix eggs, squash and peanut butter in a large bowl. Incorporate flour until you have a stiff, dry dough. Knead with your hands if necessary. (This dough is much drier than cookie dough for humans, about the consistency of pie crust.) Roll the dough out with a rolling-pin on a floured surface until it is 1/2 inch thick. Cut with the cookie cutter of your choice, or just use a knife to cut the dough into 1/2 inch squares.
