How to give pills?

I'm trying to keep Sherman's diet only to natural balance rabbit and potato but yet he has to take the rest of his antibiotics so how am I supposed to get him to take the pills without giving him anything else that could confuse everything? He will only eat his pills wrapped in a little American cheese or in a greenies pill pocket. Pill pockets are duck and cheese is well, cheese. So I don't want to use either. He sifts through the pumpkin if I try it that way and if u try to trick him with it as a treat with some kibble he spits it out.

Coconut oil

I give Ruby her pills in coconut oil (which changes consistency with temperature)...usually it's about the texture of margarine.
