Sweet Potato Bird Balls

Prepare the Sweet Potato: Pierce the skin of the sweet potato several times with a paring knife or skewer. Microwave on high for 5-9 minutes, flipping halfway, until tender. Let cool.

Combine and Mix: Peel the cooled sweet potato and place the flesh in a large bowl. Add the thawed mixed vegetables, banana, raisins, apples, and your choice of cereal. Use an electric mixer on high speed to thoroughly combine and break down the vegetables. If the mixture is too dry, add water gradually until it's pliable enough to roll.

Prepare for Freezing: Line a baking sheet with parchment or waxed paper.

Roll and Freeze: Roll the mixture into marble-sized balls and place them on the prepared baking sheet. Offer a few to your bird immediately! Then, freeze the baking sheet until the balls are completely frozen.

Store: Remove the frozen treats from the parchment paper and store them in a resealable plastic bag in the freezer. Thaw before serving.
