The Honest Kitchen: Grace Dehydrated Cat Food & Pro Bloom Dry Goat's Milk Supplement Review

Disclosure: I received these products in exchange for my honest review. All opinions and experiences are our own and may differ from those of your own. 

The Honest Kitchen 

The Honest Kitchen began back in 2002 when Lucy was making her first dog, Mosi fresh food. It was quite messy in her kitchen, but she didn't want that to stop her from making and feeding her dog the healthy food made of whole, colorful and healthy ingredients.  Dehydration was the answer to a cleaner kitchen. She started receiving samples from raw ingredients suppliers, which were blended in specific recipes to create Verve. 

Soon Mosi's dog park friends wanted to try Verve and soon a local store wanted to sell it! After certifications from their ingredients suppliers they were manufacturing this gourmet pet food made with ingredients that people could eat! Their first batch was 2,000 pounds and was selling out quickly! Each batch to follow was getting a little bigger and bigger.

Grace Cat Food & Pro Bloom

We received a 2 pound box of Grace Grain Free Cat Food - Turkey Recipe ($29.99ARV) and a can of Pro Bloom - Instant Goat's Milk Plus Probiotics 6oz. container ($19.99ARV). 

Pro Bloom

Pro Bloom is a dry goat's milk supplement with probiotics. It is shelf-stable and instantly goat's milk with digestive enzymes & probiots. Pro Bloom is great for dogs and cats. Pro Bloom is The Honest Kitchen's very own formulation of natural goat's milk plus probiotics and digestive enzymes. It was designed to nourish and nurture cats and dogs alike. Ideally for growing puppies and kittens as well as general immune support for the gut.

Pro Bloom digestive enzymes for dogs and cats is a human-grade and made in the USA from pasture-raised, free-ranging goat's milk in the Pacific Northwest. It is free of pesticides, herbicides, growth hormones and antibiotics.  Can be served alone, over hard food or mixed with Grace Cat Food. 

I gave our momma cat some Pro Bloom while she was nursing her newborn kittens and she loved it. Once the kittens were drinking water on their own then I introduced them to Pro Bloom. I did not want to over step momma cat's nursing abilities or deter them from nursing from mom. The kittens absolutely LOVE the Pro Bloom! I mix it with warm water and the warm goat's milk sits nicely in their little tummies. They used to sleep after drinking Pro Bloom, now that they are older that no longer fall asleep shortly after drinking it. Sort of like a human infant falling asleep with warm milk/formula/breastmilk in their little tummies. 

First there were two curious kittens. Then there were five curious kittens...

And finally all 6 curious kittens filling their bellies with nutritious Pro Bloom!

I love how all six, four week old kittens were able to stand around a normal cereal bowl and drink their Pro Bloom from The Honest Kitchen! 

Even at eight weeks old they still love their Pro Bloom. The bowl on the left is water and the bowl on the right is Pro Bloom Goat's Milk, all six started out drinking milk and a few followed it up with water. They all approve! Also, after the kittens leave the bowl of goat's milk, if I am not looking, I can catch the older cats taking a drink of Pro Bloom. They also like it, but they allow the kittens to drink first. 

Grace Cat Food

Grace Cat Food is dehydrated cat food which is made with cage-free turkey and eggs along with parsley, a little pumpkin and dandelion greens. 70% of the mixture is meat. The Grace grain-free, gluten-free dehydrated cat food is ideal for cats of all ages, but especially for those who need a gluten free diet. Grace dehydrated cat food can be used in place of homemade or canned cat food dishes. 

Miss Copy Cat (she is a darker version of one of her sisters) was the first of the kittens to come sniff out the Grace Cat Food. She eating it right away. Soon after I gathered up the other three kittens...

As you can tell, we have two "trouble makers" who aren't too keen on sharing food other than their dry kitten food, so they have their own bowls. They all love the Grace Cat Food! It's super easy to mix up a batch for these four kittens and even when we still had all six from the litter. Since they are no more than probably 3 pounds each, I mixed up a cup of food for the four kittens. Per the box for a 1-5 pound kitten they should get 1/3 to 1/2 a cup of Grace Cat Food. The small white bowls that the two trouble makers are eating from are actually my measuring cups which are 1 cup filled to the rim. I mixed the food in a cool whip container and then poured it into separate bowls for the kittens. They did not fully finish the bowls, although sometimes they do. They also have dry kitten food available for them at all times. 

Miss Paws (she's very pawsy, smacks stuff and people a lot) of course dumped her bowl of food. The measuring cups the two trouble makers were eating from have little grippers on the bottom, but not the red bowl she had. She cleaned it up though, she didn't want her tasty new food to go to waste. 

Unfortunately, the larger cats (Sunshine-daddy, pictured above)don't seem to want the Grace Cat Food. I wouldn't say they don't like it as they really haven't tried it! However, they are very polite as they allow the kittens to eat before they eat, which is absolutely amazing to me! Plus, momma cat likes to try and steal our food while she's pregnant and nursing so she often gets scolded when going for food in the kitchen. So I suppose for her, she's unsure if it's okay. I keep trying as I know this would be great for her. Maybe eventually she'll take to it. There will be no more babies, so I'm sure she'll take to this once she's no longer nursing any kittens, but it'll still be just as good for her. 

Both products are a hit here! I definitely approve of these products for my kitties. Oh and I'm not a fan of the smell of most commercial pet foods, especially not moist/wet foods. They kind of make my stomach churn a bit, but not The Honest Kitchen's products! So that was another plus for me.

Harvestland All Natural Poulrty & Pork Products Review!

Disclosure: I received product coupons to purchase the below products in exchange for my honest review. All opinions and experiences are my own and may differ from those of your own. 

Harvestland Purely All Natural Poultry & Pork

At Harvestland they know that it is important to bring fresh, wholesome food to your table. You can feel good about the food you serve your family with Harvestland brand because they believe that all families deserve to eat well. They have an appreciation for healthy, wholesome foods as food lovers themselves. They have longed for more natural choices and a more authentic connection to our food. However, they also understood the challenges of managing a family budget. Out of that desire, the HARVESTLAND® brand was born in the rich farmland of western Kentucky. They joined with select farm families who shared their vision. Together they abandoned the common practices of administering antibiotics to livestock and adding animal by-products to feed. 



HARVESTLAND® has since grown to include no-antibiotics-ever chicken, turkey and pork. Their chicken is USDA-certified organic. While their operations are now in more states, they still work with select farm families who understand that respect for animals and the land goes hand-in-hand with healthy eating.

Havestland All Natural Chicken Drumsticks
We received product coupons to purchase Harvestland products in order to conduct our honest review. We also received some recipe cards, a magnetic kitchen timer and copper measuring cups. We chose Harvestland All Natural Fresh Chicken Drumsticks.

Our local grocery store only carried or only had in stock a few Harvestland products. They had mainly these drumsticks, a couple packages of boneless skinless chicken breasts and a couple packages of ground chicken. Next time I am at the grocery store I will be checking the freezer section to see if I can find the grilled boneless, skinless chicken breasts. Those would be amazing for salads and/or quick chicken tacos. 

With the drumsticks I made my own version of Harvestland's Easy Chicken and Brown Rice recipe. Click here for their recipe. It really is a simple recipe, perfect if you are new to making homemade meals from scratch or if you just don't have the time to make something that uses 20 different pots and pans. This recipe is a ONE skillet/pan job! 

Here is my version of the Easy Chicken and White Rice.
All I had on hand was the drumsticks of course, sweet corn(would have been better with regular corn), white rice, olive oil, water, adobo and sazon. I seasoned my drumsticks with a mixture of sazon and adobo, making sure to rub the seasoning up and under the skin flaps. I heated up the olive oil while seasoning my drumsticks.  Then my pan was ready for them. 

Such a beautiful color and amazing smell while these were cooking! I was very pleased that the bone marrow did not squirt out of these like other types of drumsticks I've bought and made. It just grosses me out and my daughter as well. So that was a huge plus! The drumsticks cooked up very nicely and I did not have any trouble fully cooking them. I'm a freak about chicken not being even the slightest pink except right along the bone. I removed one to cut it open and check the center color and it was perfect. 

Since I didn't have green or red peppers, an onion or garlic, I skipped step 2 on Harvestland's recipe and jumped straight to the last task. For step 3, I realized that I didn't have any chicken broth!! Oh, no!! I had, cream of chicken, but no broth and I knew the cream of chicken would be too thick and give it a totally different taste and texture so I just opted to use water. After all we're doing step 3 in the same pan as step 1 so there is some flavor left in the pan from the chicken having been cooked. So, I added my water, sweet corn and rice. I made 2 cups of rice so I added 2 cups of water. Ezio loves rice so I figured I was better off making more rather then not having enough for him to mow down. After I had all of that in the pan and mixed up I sort of gently patted the rice to make a nice flat bed for the chicken and laid them on top. 

Looks good doesn't it? Oh, you should have smelled it!! You let it all cook for about 12-15 minutes on medium-low heat. I let mine cook for 12 minutes as I had already fully cooked the chicken through and my rice was actually 5 minute rice, not 10 minute rice. The sweet corn was frozen and 12 minutes was enough time for that to thaw and warm up as well. 

Now, time to enjoy! Like I said above, it would have been so much better had I had regular corn instead of the sweet corn. The chicken was amazing! 

Look how JUICY it is! I took my chicken off the bone and cut it up into my rice. Jedilynn didn't have any of the rice, she wasn't a fan of the sweet corn either, but she did eat 4 drumsticks! Last time I made none organic drumsticks she didn't even want one. I guess these looked more appealing and also had better flavor. I was very excited that she chose to eat these drumsticks, she's never been big on meat, poultry, etc. 

We were very pleased with these Harvestland All Natural Fresh Chicken Drumsticks. I would definitely buy them again! That's saying a lot seeing as how I've been "chicken" to try organic/all natural meats until now. I am very thankful for this opportunity from Harvestland to have done so. I honestly couldn't tell the difference by taste so much... like they say, "It tastes like Chicken!", but I could definitely tell in the way it cooked up, there were no gross trails of blood from veins or anything of that sort and that's what usually turns me off from eating drumsticks or any chicken on the bone. 

Thank you so much to HARVESTLAND!!!!
