Okay, now it's officially soup season since we saw our first snow flake this weekend. To prepare for the upcoming cold weather we are making bone broth to use as a base for our favorite soup. Bone broth adds rich flavor to any recipe and is beneficial to our gut and mental health.
Are you bloated, tired, achey, feeling foggy? Bone broth is going to strengthen your body and vitality.
Bone Broth is nutrient dense, rich in protein, collagen and amino acids. Drinking Bone broth supports joints, hair and nail growth, and restores gut health and strengthens the immune system. We like to sip on it in the afternoon to put a pep in our step. We also use it to cook with in broth based soups!
