1. In a saucepan, heat olive oil over medium heat until it shimmers slightly for optimal browning.
2. Add ground beef and cook until completely browned, breaking into small, uniform pieces—the aroma will be incredible.
3. Pour in beef bone broth and bring to a gentle simmer, allowing flavors to begin melding.
4. Add diced sweet potato and sliced carrots, simmer for 15 minutes until vegetables are tender but not mushy.
5. Stir in green peas and cook for additional 5 minutes until bright green and tender.
6. Let gravy cool completely before serving over your dog’s meal—hot liquid can burn their mouth.

Notes:

• Always cool completely before serving (hot gravy can burn and reduce nutritional benefits)

Storage Tips:

• Store in refrigerator for up to 4 days in airtight containers
• Freeze in ice cube trays for convenient meal-sized portions
• Label containers with dates since homemade gravy doesn’t have preservatives
• Reheat gently if needed, but always cool before serving
