Preparation
- NOTE: Cats should only consume these kitty-friendly ingredients in moderation.
- Preheat the oven to 180ºC (350ºF).
- In a bowl, mix the mashed potato, peas, corn, carrots, ham and half of the parmesan cheese. Mix well.
- Mix the breadcrumbs and remaining parmesan cheese together. Dip each shrimp in egg, then breadcrumbs. Place in a baking tray. Drizzle olive oil on top.
- Bake for 10 minutes or until the breadcrumbs turn golden and the prawns are cooked through.
- Grease a regular-size muffin mold, and a mini one. Add some of the potato mix until the molds are full.
- Using your fingers, mold a hole in the middle of the cups.
- Place a whole shrimp in the hole of the regular-size cups. Add half a shrimp to the mini cups.
- Add mexican blend cheese (or cheddar) to your cups, and lightly sprinkle the mini cups.
- Bake for 10 minutes or until the cheese on top turns golden.
- Add sour cream and cilantro to your cups. Sprinkle catnip on your cat’s mini cups.
- Enjoy!
