Today was a great saturday. Felt fabulous all day...wow my energy level is crazy high!! ;) I woke up this morning, made the kids and hubby breakfast and made myself a green lemonade. As I was sitting at the table with my family I was on my tablet searching for some good healthy home made vegetable broths to make . I found one and decided to modify it to what I had in my fridge.
I am sorry I didn't take any pictures of this recipe, but next time I make I will make sure to and update this post. ;) This is so simple and smelled so yummy. Look forward to heating up in sauce pan and drinking. Or you can save for later and use in cooking recipes.
Simple Vegetable Broth
Ingredients include any vegetables you may have in the fridge. This is what I put into my broth:
* 6 carrots
* 1 bunch celery
* 1 onion
* 1 tes. minced garlic
* 1 bunch broccoli
* 1 small balm full of peppercorns
* water
This recipe also called for vegetable oil, but I did'nt want to add anything like that.
Cooking Directions:
Use a large pot. Chop up onion, carrots, broccoli, celery, add to warm pot. Add garlic and as much water to submerge all vegetables. About 2 1/2 cups. Cover and bring to a boil. Ster and reduce heat to med. Cook for 1 hour. Stering occasionally. Remove from stove top and strain the broth into a container with an air tight lid. You also might need to use a cheese cloth after the first staining. Throw away vegetables, all of the nutrients are now in the broth so no need for them. You can store in fridge up to 3 days. You can also freeze the broth into ice cube trays for future cooking. They willnlast in freezer for up to 6 months. Enjoy!!
