Skyla’s Angel Bread
By Lisa Long
2 boxes corn muffin mix
1 Tbsp baking powder
1 1/2 cups baby rice cereal
3 eggs (with shells)
4 jars of any vegetable baby food (sweet potato, carrots, potatoes, etc)
1/2 cup applesauce
2 Tbsp wheat germ
2/3 cup Tahini (sesame seed paste) or Peanut Butter
1/2 cup grated cheese (swiss, cheddar, parmesan, or any other hard cheese)
3 grated carrots
1/2 cup finely chopped broccoli florets
1/2 cup of mixed seed or pellets
1. Heat oven to 400.
2. Place muffin mix, rice cereal, and baking powder in large bowl, and set aside.
3. Wash whole eggs thoroughly and place in blender (shells and all.) Add baby food, applesauce, and wheat germ, and puree.
4. Pour blended mix into your bowl of dry ingredients and stir with a large spoon. Stir in Tahini, cheese, grated carrots, and broccoli (if you have a fussy bird, you can puree these items in the blender in step 3.)
5. Spread mixture in a lightly greased 9 x 13" pan and sprinkle the seed (or pellets) over the top.
6. Bake for approximately 30 minutes. (Time may vary.) Let cool and cut into squares that are the size of a daily portion for your bird and freeze accordingly.
Defrost daily portions in the microwave before feeding. Depending on your bird, either crumble the birdie bread into their bowl (especially smaller birds) or give them talon size chunks (bigger birds).
Don't be afraid to experiment with the ingredients. The recipe is very forgiving. Instead of baby food, I sometimes substitute frozen mixed vegetables, a can of pumpkin, or mashed sweet potatoes.
nstead of baby cereal, I often use cooked brown rice, organic oatmeal, or whole grain Cheerios. Other things I've experimented with include chopped nuts, raisins, cooked lentils or pasta.
Tahini (sesame seed paste) is preferable to peanut butter, if you can find it. It's very high in protein and calcium.
