hills cd for urinary stones in feline; home cooking for cats;

Question
I read where you offer someone your recipes to cook their own food for their cat.
My male cat approximately 12 years old,is comming home tomorrow from  his second deobstructing. The vet insists strictly only hills cd and not one mouthful of anything else is the answer to keep him from becoming obstructed again,even though it didnt work last time.Im near my end on what I can do and just dont know what to do now.

Could you please tell me about your recipes?

Cooking for you cats is very easy - You can feeze up some for 2 weeks at a time.
You can keep the food cold and use it within 3 days.
YOU don't have to cook every day...JUST heat up from the freezer what you need.
Some folks use Freezer bags and make individual meals.

Pass the diet by your vet if you have concerns.
Most vets have very little knowledge of cat nutrition.

Good Luck
