Lamb Kebab: Here's your recipe of dreams

At Tilly and Ted, we think your pet deserves a place at the table. As such, all our pet foods are designed after dishes that you may enjoy alongside your furry friend, and we aim for them to be so tantalisingly tasty that you could (almost) eat them too. Although we wouldn’t recommend eating your pet’s food at the best of times, there’s nothing to make your pet feel part of the family than sharing a meal all together. Take a look at the mouth-watering recipe below for a succulent Lamb Kebab, that you can enjoy alongside your floofy bestie whilst they tuck into our new Lamb Kebab recipe designed with their enjoyment and health at its core. Now that’s what we call truly ke-fab.

Whether it’s served at a summer BBQ or piled high in a takeaway box (the best way to end a night out), Kebabs are a classic dish, originating at least as far back as 1377 in Turkey. With the word ‘Kebab’ simply meaning ‘to grill’, there are many different forms and styles Kebabs can follow; donor, shish, peshwari, and more. For our Tilly & Ted Lamb Kebab recipe, we wanted your special canine to enjoy the best of the best, so chose to combine both chicken and lamb for our recipe, and pack it with as many Amino Acids and Omega’s as possible to give that energising zing.

This (human) recipe below uses both chicken and lamb, just like our Lamb Kebab dog food. It’s packed with essential vitamins and a tasty kick - hopefully leaving you with a shiny coat and happy tummy just like your pup.
