Should I feed my dog this homemade natural ingredient recipe?

Question

Dear Experts, We are from The Hockaday School and are working to make an original dog food with only natural ingredients. We were wondering if our idea is successful and original. We would appreciate it if you looked at our recipe and could help us alter or work on it. Recipe: • Pork = 40 grams • Chicken = 40 grams • Salmon = 40 grams • Peanuts = 10 grams • Sunflower seeds = 10 grams • Basil = 10 grams • Rosemary = 10 grams • Oregano = 10 grams • Sweet potatoes = 20 grams • Carrots = 20 grams

Overall the ingredients sound very good but i would change the ratio (too much spices), i would consider replacing the peanuts and sunflower seeds with some high quality oils high in omega 3 and 6 as well (e.g fish oil).
