Chicken broth is packed with gut-supportive nutrients, amino acids, and easily absorbed minerals. You can make it two ways—using a fresh whole chicken or a roasted chicken carcass. I personally love the rich flavor of broth made from fresh chicken, and as a bonus, you’ll end up with plenty of tender cooked meat to enjoy in quick meals the next day or freeze in small containers for later. Use leftover meat for Chicken Pot Pie, or Chicken Salad Lettuce Wraps! It is also delicious served over the Roasted Delicata Squash Salad with Apples and Toasted Pumpkin Seeds
