Sometimes I just have to make 3 variations of something 🤣

In this case there's a regular chicken one, a meatless broccoli & cheddar, and of course a dog friendly version 😅

A little time consuming but croquettes are pretty easy to make. Get some potatoes started for mashing and chicken going for shredding. Human chicken was SPPOG seasoned, dog chicken was left plain, simmer in broth until it pulls apart. The potatoes I usually run through a sieve or a ricer but since I had to shred some cheese for this anyway, I ran the potatoes through that instead and it worked great.

Season the potatoes (except the dog ones) w/ salt, pepper, and garlic. Once they cool start making some balls. Chicken & cheddar, broccoli & cheddar, and chicken/carrot/celery for the dogs. Toss in flour then chill in the freezer so they set.

While they chill, make some gravy. I'll skip the regular chicken gravy since it's pretty basic. For the other gravy, warm up some truffle oil and cook down some mushrooms then mix in flour to absorb all the oil. Add cream and thin as needed with vegetable broth, s&p to taste.

After the balls set, flour again if needed, dip in egg, panko, then fry until crispy. Skip the fry on the dog treats 😅 toss them in the oven at 400° to finish warming through, then enjoy with gravy! The dogs got a scoop of pumpkin puree instead 😆
