Lily's Kitchen Trays Adult: Wild Campfire Stew review

Name: Lily's Kitchen Trays Adult: Wild Campfire Stew
Brand: Lily's Kitchen

75.4/100Excellent

WetAdult

Flavour

The brand's recipes in a sealed 150g tray, which does away with the tin opener and the half tin in the fridge. Every species is named, down to herring and salmon at 15% apiece in the Fishy Fish Pie. Three trays sit in our Excellent band; Lamb Hotpot and the Great British Breakfast reach Outstanding.

Our view

Likely to suit

One dog fed a measured portion: each tray is a sealed 150g serving
Owners who want species spelled out, venison to herring
A dog that likes variety, with red meat, poultry, fish and game across five trays
Dogs that take most of their water from dinner
Weekends away. A tray travels without an opener

Worth watching

Ham in the Great British Breakfast means pork
Fish alongside meat or poultry in Fishy Fish Pie and Wild Campfire Stew
A large dog gets through several trays a meal

For a dog that likes game and gets on with fish.

Five recipes in single-serve 150g trays. Four share their recipes and percentages with the brand's tins, so only the format changes; the Great British Breakfast is tray-only. Each opens with a named animal or two at 60% between them, then a short plant run of potatoes, squash and orchard fruit, then the herb tail.

Moisture runs 73% to 79%. Carbohydrate spreads from 8.2% of dry matter on Fishy Fish Pie to 27.8% on Cottage Pie, depending on the potato. The added fat is flaxseed or hemp oil, and the mineral declaration varies from chelated minerals to none at all.
