Rachael Ray Nutrish has sponsored this post, but all opinions are my own.
This month, Irie and Tiki have been super excited to try out the new DISH from Rachael Ray Nutrish super premium food for dogs. With whole ingredients that you can spot in your dog’s bowl, DISH is the newest addition to the Nutrish line.
We love Nutrish not only for its whole ingredients (more about those below) but also because of the fact that all of Rachael Ray’s personal proceeds benefit pet rescue! To date, Rachael’s Rescue has supplied over $10 million in terms of food, medical supplies and veterinary treatments for homeless pets!
You’ll find DISH in stores near you (check the store locator for your closest location)–and we’re giving away a ONE-YEAR supply of food below!
What’s in DISH from Rachael Ray Nutrish?
Every bag of DISH–whether you choose Beef & Brown Rice Recipe with Veggies, Fruit & Chicken or Chicken & Brown Rice Recipe with Veggies & Fruit—is created using real U.S. farm-raised chicken or beef, always the #1 ingredient! You won’t find any corn, wheat, soy or gluten in the recipes (or by-product meal or fillers), just whole ingredients like:
- slow-roasted chicken
- carrots (great for a tasty crunch and a super source of carotenoids, essential vitamins and minerals to help support immune health)
- peas (a source of dietary fiber to help support healthy digestion–plus naturally gluten free!)
- tree-ripened apples (packed with Vitamin A, Vitamin C and dietary fiber, which can help support healthy digestion)
- farm-grown potatoes (an easily digestible alternative carbohydrate that’s naturally gluten free and gentle on your dog’s digestive system)
You can learn more about DISH on the Nutrish website as well as on Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram.
French Spring Chicken Pot: A Rachael Ray Recipe
What would a dish of DISH ingredients for humans be like? I rolled up my sleeves to try out a Rachael Ray recipe for French Spring Chicken Pot that replicates many of the ingredients and flavors found in the new dog food. Like a grown-up version of the chicken pot pie, this dish combines loads of nutrition along with fresh flavors for a taste that I’ll be returning to in my meal rotation.
Ingredients
- 4 pieces skinless, boneless chicken breast
- 2 onions, 1 halved and 1 chopped
- 1 bay leaf
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 1 baking potato, peeled and cut into small cubes
- 2 carrots, peeled and cut into small cubes
- 3 small ribs celery, cut into small cubes
- 1/3 pound white mushrooms (a couple of generous handfuls), quartered
- 1/3 pound thin green beans (a couple of generous handfuls), cut on an angle into 1-inch pieces
- Salt and pepper
- 2 tablespoons flour
- 1/2 cup dry white wine
- 1 1/2 cups chicken broth
- 3 tablespoons fresh tarragon, chopped
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 1/3 cup heavy cream
- Grainy rolls or crusty whole wheat bread, for dunking
Instructions
- In a large, heavy pot or Dutch oven filled with simmering water, cook the chicken, halved onion and bay leaf until cooked through and tender, 15-20 minutes.
- Transfer the chicken to a cutting board and cut into bite-sized pieces or, using 2 forks, shred in a bowl.
- Wipe out the pot, add the butter and melt over medium heat. One vegetable at a time, stir in the chopped onion, potato, carrots, celery, and mushrooms. Cover the pot, lower the heat and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the green beans and season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle the flour into the pot and stir for 1 minute. Stir in the wine, scraping the browned bits from the bottom of the pan, and cook until slightly reduced, about 1 minute. Stir in the chicken broth and bring to a simmer. Stir in the peas, tarragon and mustard and simmer for 5 minutes.
- Add the chicken to the vegetables. Stir in the cream and heat through. Serve with the bread.
As you can see, the ingredients list was a looong one! The final result, as the noted chef would say, was delish! The care that she has taken in formulating this recipe for humans makes me feel great about the quality ingredients that have gone into DISH food as well.
