A dog's dinner

I am not hungry tonight.

Too many hot dogs and a heavy breakfast this morning.

But I did make the dogs this:

Kombu, brown rice and dehydrated duck breast.

I simmered them in a pot with a bit of extra water to help the duck breast break down.

The dogs were very excited about this dinner - Connor couldn't help himself from taking  nibble.

Abby's dinner - both dogs had a healthy topping of tobiko.

I really can't express how tired I am after 7 consecutive days of noise.
 
Yes, I did bring the dogs out on a walk - but a short one - 1.5 miles. 

I really just need to sleep.

A surprise and the secret ingredient

I am sure I noticed, when I was feeding the dogs dinner last night, that the kibble container was empty. 

I suppose if I only fed kibble - the empty dog food container would hold more significance. Last night, I am sure (at least this is what I tell myself), I just shrugged and thought, "I will need to cook the dogs breakfast."

But in my pre-caffeinated state this morning, it was a surprise :-)

This was my breakfast:

This was the dogs breakfast:

This is not a snack portion - but a meal size portion. Abby's meal on the right is slightly smaller.

I will admit to being clumsy and losing the yolk out of Abby's soft boiled egg while I was peeling it. Hence the extra little bit of smoked salmon on her plate.

If you haven't guessed yet - the secret ingredient is Tobiko!

I have been trying to get more caviar into my diet. The nutritional power punch it provides (Omega-3's, calcium, phosphorus, protein, iron, magnesium, Vitamins B12, B6, B2, C, A and D and amino acids).

But it is high in sodium and cholesterol - so it is best served not as the main meal, but as a garnish.

Brown rice with fish sauce and wakame with a soft boiled egg and tobiko.

Soft boiled egg with tobiko and a crispy potato slice on greek yogurt topped with tobiko and scallion.

A refreshing glass of lemonade in my new, very pretty glass.

Time to get some work done!
