The Great Strained Chicken Caper.
 
I have one little gal who likes her chicken strained, and one who likes
hers in a neat pile beside her dish.  One gets her chicken off of my
plate, while I use the strained baby food for June's Angel.
 
I never mix the chicken into the soup until I serve it.  AND, my crew
WILLNOT eat it cold or cool.  They want it luke warm.
 
So, I take a spoonful of the soup base, put it in their freshly washed
and dried dish, add a spoonful of strained chicken, add really hot water,
mix it around with my finger until it is smooth, and feed it out.
 
Every dish is done separately, some like it warmer than others, some like
it thicker than others, and some like it thin.
 
I have not had any trouble, but chicken is a fast spoiler, so I do not
mix it before hand.  Besides, if I did that, it would get cool, and it
would end up in the dogs dish.
 
She has no problems with it at all.
