Bone broth can be one of the easiest and most nutritious things you can incorporate into your diet for a variety of health benefits. Bone broth is naturally rich in minerals like calcium, magnesium, phosphorous, iron as well as natural collagen which has been shown to increase skin elasticity, promote joint and tendon health, and support muscle growth. Even as a stand-alone star, you can do a few things to enhance the benefits of bone broth. Check them out!

Erica’s Homemade Slow Cooker Bone Broth

Every year after Thanksgiving, I make a batch of bone broth with the leftover turkey bones. I freeze the broth in one or two cup increments in quart-size freezer bags, so it’s ready for sipping or soups throughout the winter. In past years, I’ve used a big pot on the stove, but this year I used my slow cooker and it turned out great! Bone broth is rich in minerals and natural collagen. It is supportive for the immune system and healing for the gut. You can use any types of bones – beef, chicken, turkey.

Makes about 4 quarts

Ingredients:

• 3 pounds of bones
• 2 carrots
• 2 celery stalks
• 1 medium onion
• 2 garlic cloves
• A few sprigs of thyme
• Water
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar

Instructions:

• Place bones in slow cooker, about ¾ full.

• Fill the slow cooker with water.
• Add salt and apple cider vinegar.
• Cook on low for 18-72 hours.
