These Breakfast Meatballs are sure to become a morning favorite. Made with your choice of ground turkey or pork, a refreshing touch of apple, aromatic sage, and an optional hint of fennel, these meatballs are a flavorful way to enjoy a protein-packed breakfast. Plus, with instructions for both air-fryer and conventional oven methods, this versatile recipe is perfect for busy mornings or leisurely weekends alike. PREP TIME: 10 min | COOK TIME: 8-15 min | YIELD: 4 servings Ingredients 1¼ pounds ground turkey or pork, or a combination of the two 1 medium apple, grated ½ teaspoon ground or rubbed sage ½ teaspoon fennel seed (optional) ⅛-¼ teaspoon garlic powder 1 teaspoon Celtic or pink Himalayan salt ½ teaspoon ground black pepper crushed red-pepper flakes (optional) Avocado, coconut, or olive oil pan spray Instructions Place meat in a medium bowl. Use the large holes on a box grater or a food processor with the shredding disk to grate the apple. Squeeze as much juice as possible from the grated apple. Add sage, fennel seeds, garlic powder, salt, pepper, and red-pepper flakes (if using) and combine all ingredients. Wet your hands and roll into 1" balls. Try to keep them the same size so they will cook evenly. You should get 16 small meatballs, about 1½ ounces each. AIR FRYER METHOD: Preheat the air fryer to 350°F. Place half the meatballs into the basket in one layer and lightly spray with pan spray. Cook for about 8 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through. Remove and keep warm while cooking the second batch. Test for doneness with an instant-read thermometer. Turkey should be cooked to an internal temperature of 165°F and pork to 160°F. OVEN METHOD: Preheat the oven to 400°F, center the rack in the top half of the oven, and line a baking sheet with parchment. Place the meatballs in one layer, leaving a bit of room between each meatball. Lightly spray each meatball with pan spray and bake for 15 minutes, or until they are cooked through. Test for doneness with an instant-read thermometer. Turkey should be cooked to an internal temperature of 165°F and pork to 160°F. Notes If you make the meatballs larger or smaller (or if you make patties) you will need to adjust the cooking time.

Bone broth has been my go-to superfood for years. Whether it's cooked very simply with good bones and water or loaded with garlic, onions and vegetables, bone broth is an elixir I cannot resist. But sipping on bone broth can take a little getting used to for some people, so I recommend playing around with added herbs and spices until you create a flavor combination that is perfect for you.While a great batch of bone broth is definitely my favorite savory drink to sip on it doesn’t mean that I don’t mix it up from time-to-time. There are endless ways to spice up or enhance the flavor of bone broth, and here are my most favorite. Add Herbs and Spices to Your Bone Broth While it’s easiest to sprinkle on dried herbs and spices you can also chop some fresh herbs and spices and simmer them in your bone broth. And like any good recipe, add salt and pepper to your liking. When I want to keep it simple I add a dash or two of some of the following: Salt White or black pepper Garlic powder Onion powder or dried, minced onion Lemon juice Lemon zest Hot sauce Vinegar (apple cider vinegar is my favorite) Truffle oil Smoked salt Coconut aminos Fish Sauce When I’m craving something reminiscent of my Italian roots I’ll add various combinations of the following: Parsley Oregano Basil Thyme Rosemary Marjoram Sugar-free tomato paste (½ to 1 teaspoon) Italian seasoning When I want something mild but bursting with flavor I’ll go with one of these combinations: Salt, pepper, chives, and lemon juice Ginger, garlic powder, and lemon juice Truffle salt and ginger Garlic and onion powder, salt and smoked paprika Garlic powder, ginger, cilantro, coconut aminos, and lime juice When I really want to spice it up go for one of the following: Hot sauce (or cayenne pepper) and lemon juice Hot sauce, or Sriracha, lime juice, salt, garlic powder and coriander (or cilantro) Chili powder, cumin, cayenne pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika Turmeric, garlic powder, and black pepper Don't Forget to Visit the Spice Aisle Here’s a no-brainer. For creative ways to enhance the flavor of your bone broth visit the spice aisle. There are so many interesting flavor combinations sitting on your local grocery store shelf. Every time I stock up on spices I am amazed at the new seasoning combinations I find. If you’ve got a favorite ethnic food I guarantee there is a seasoning for it. Try some out, but be sure to be mindful of added ingredients and skip ones with monosodium glutamate and added sugar. Here are some of my go-to combination spices and pastes: Italian seasoning (of course) Herbs De Provence Taco seasoning Mexican adobo Curry powder or paste Garam masala Chinese Five Spice Blackening seasoning Umami seasoning Za’atar Harissa Use Your Bone Broth to Make a Soup Soups are by far my favorite way to get more vegetables and protein into my diet. Check out my broth-loading soup post for great ideas on loading up your bone broth with more vegetables. And remember, bone broth can be used to make a quick meal by adding your favorite meat to your bone broth and vegetables. Check out some of my favorite soup recipes here. Make it Creamy A little healthy fat, a tablespoon or two per eight ounces of bone broth, can turn any soup into a creamy soup. My favorite way to make a soup creamy is canned coconut milk, but pureed avocado works really great too. Bottom Line... Make it Your Own You know what you like. Play around with your favorite flavors and make it a daily adventure to try something new! If you do that and you will never be bored with your bone broth. Bon Appétit,

You can't love bone broth like I do and not love Phở. (Pronounced "fuh.") Pho is a Vietnamese soup made with a beef/bone broth, noodles, and thinly sliced beef that's usually served with bean sprouts, chili, lime, and Thai basil. Pho is generally made with a rich, savory bone broth infused with a delicious array of flavors, served with flat rice noodles, and garnished with fresh vegetables and herbs. Scroll down for Dr. Kellyann diet/program compatibility. Prep time: 15 min • Cook time: 20 min • Yield: 4-6 servings Ingredients 2 tablespoons avocado oil or coconut oil 2 garlic cloves, minced 3 scallions, cut into 1/ 2-inch pieces 5 slices fresh ginger 4 cups (1 quart) homemade bone broth or DKA Chicken or Beef Liquid Bone Broth, OR 4 packets DKA powdered Bone Broth + 32 ounces of water 1 cup roughly chopped bok choy 1 cup sliced mushrooms 2 tablespoons coconut aminos 1/2 teaspoon Celtic or pink Himalayan salt 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black or white pepper Dash of cayenne pepper 2 cups zoodles (about 2 medium zucchini, spiralized; see Note) 1/2 cup fresh cilantro leaves For Serving (Optional) Thai basil Sriracha sauce Mung bean sprouts Lime wedges Directions In a large stockpot, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add garlic, scallions, and ginger, and reduce heat to medium-low. Cook, stirring for 3 to 4 minutes, to soften scallions. Raise heat to medium-high and add broth, bok choy, mushrooms, coconut aminos, salt, black pepper, and cayenne. When soup begins to boil, reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for 10 to 15 minutes. Add zoodles and cilantro, and remove from heat. Serve warm, with Thai basil, Sriracha, mung bean sprouts, and lime wedges, if desired. NOTE: Most stores sell pre-cut zoodles to save you time in the kitchen. If you prefer to make them at home and you don’t have a spiralizer, there are other methods you can use to make zucchini pasta. Julienne peelers will give you straight, skinny zoodles; mandoline or old-fashioned vegetable peelers produce wide, flat zoodles. You can also try konjac noodles in the dish for a zero-carb alternative that is very, very close to a rice noodle texture and soaks up the fragrant bone broth flavors perfectly. Buon appetito!

Whether you prefer not to eat land animals or you’re looking for something new to add to the mix, fish bone broth does not disappoint. It’s just as nutrient dense and equally as delicious. Fish Bone Broth: Equally Nutritious & Delicious You know I’m a big fan of bone broth. I call it liquid gold. Because it’s loaded with minerals, gut healing nutrients, and collagen for healthy skin, hair, bones, and joints. Need I say more! Now, when you think of bone broth, chances are you think of beef or chicken. But, have you ever tried fish bone broth? If not, you’re missing out! How to Make Fish Bone Broth I love the heartiness of beef bone broth and the rich, warm flavor of chicken or turkey bone broth. But some days, I’m in the mood for a light, delicate broth—and that’s when I head straight for the kitchen and cook up a batch of fish bone broth. Similar to beef or chicken, fish bone broth is made by simmering fish carcasses or heads with water, veggies, and spices. However, since fish bones are smaller and more delicate, you can draw out the nutrients in much less time. In fact, some recipes require as little as one hour.Which means you get all the same benefits in a fraction of the time. Yes, please! Fish bone broth has a lovely flavor if you drink it straight from the mug, and it also makes a wonderful base for soups—especially Asian-influenced soups. And in addition to the wrinkle-blasting collagen and fat-burning nutrients you get from bone broth, fish bone broth gives you a healthy dose of iodine to keep your thyroid happy. Benefits of Fish Bone Broth We’ve already covered the time factor. Which is a huge bonus in my book. And fish bone broth contains many of the same nutrients as chicken and beef, such as phosphorus, magnesium, silicon, sulfur, calcium, trace minerals, and collagen to name a few. Which is great news for pescetarians! But fish bone broth excels when it comes to iodine–a mineral not found in the bones of land animals. And iodine is essential for optimal thyroid health (among many other things). This is important since thyroid cancer has continuously increased around the world in the last decade. It has become the most common hormone-related cancer. And has skyrocketed to the fifth most common cancer among women. Yikes! However, according to a recent meta-analysis of over 2200 cases, a higher iodine intake was shown to be a protective factor against thyroid cancer. And getting more iodine in your diet is as simple as eating more fish and making bone broth with the leftover heads or carcasses. It’s also worth mentioning that a healthy thyroid is closely linked to your metabolism. And that means we’re talking about your waistline. Quality Matters Not all fish is created equal. These days we are faced with the option of wild or farmed fish. In most cases, wild fish is best. And fish that is caught in a sustainable fashion. In addition, it’s best to use a non-oily fish for making broth to prevent the oils from becoming rancid during cooking. Therefore, according to the Monterey Bay Aquarium Seafood Watch, the most sustainable non-oily options are wild Pacific cod, rockfish, or sole. So next time you’re at the store, try buying a whole, intact fish instead of a pre-cut portion. Or, if that doesn’t work, you can ask your fishmonger to save the heads and carcasses for you. The cost is often very low (if not free). Or simply ask your butcher to save carcasses for you—or visit good fish restaurants, which often buy whole fish, and ask if they can supply you with bones. It’s a win-win situation for everyone: Your suppliers can recycle bones they’d otherwise toss out, and you get those bones for a very small price—or often even for free). How’s that for a good deal all around? Here’s my simple fish bone broth recipe. Give it a try, and I think you’ll fall in love with it. Bon appetit! Just be sure to use bones from a non-oily fish, because the oils in fatty fish like salmon can develop an off taste if they cook for a long time. Also, make your fish bone broth on the stove rather than in a slow cooker, because it cooks very quickly. Fish Bone Broth Prep Time: 15 minutes • Cook Time: 1 hour 15 minutes Yield: Varies depending on pot size; these ingredients are sufficient for 1 gallon of broth 5–7 pounds fish carcasses or heads from large non-oily fish such as halibut, cod, sole, rockfish, turbot, or tilapia (Non-oily fish is necessary because the fish oils in fatty fish such as salmon become rancid in cooking). 2 tablespoons ghee 1–2 carrots, scrubbed and coarsely chopped 2 ribs organic celery, including leafy part, coarsely chopped 2 medium onion, coarsely chopped Purified water to just cover the bones in the pot 1 bay leaf 1–2 whole cloves 2 teaspoons peppercorns 1 tablespoon bouquet garni or a small handful of fresh parsley and 4–5 stems fresh thyme Wash the fish and cut off the gills if present. In a large stockpot, melt the ghee over medium-low to low heat. Add the carrots, celery, and onion and cook, stirring occasionally, for about 20 minutes. Add the fish and enough water to cover it by 1”. Increase the heat to medium and bring the water to a bare simmer. Use a shallow spoon to carefully skim the film off the top of the broth. Add the bay leaf, cloves, peppercorns, and bouquet garni and reduce the heat to low. Cook at a bare simmer for about 50 minutes, uncovered or with the lid askew. Continue to skim the surface as needed. When the broth is done, remove the pot from the heat. Using tongs and/or a large slotted spoon, remove all the bones. Pour the fish bone broth through a fine mesh strainer and discard the solids. Let cool on the counter before refrigerating. You can skim off the fat easily after the broth is chilled if desired. When chilled, the broth should be very gelatinous. The fish bone broth will keep for 5 days in the refrigerator and 3 or more months in your freezer. Enjoy!

As a naturopathic doctor, I have made it my mission since day one to inspire my patients to transform into a healthier, happier version of themselves. Living a healthy lifestyle doesn’t have to be hard… you just need the right tools. If you’re looking to eat healthier follow my Bone Broth Diet or my Bone Broth Lifestyle guidelines and use the 7-Day meal plan below to get started. MAKE A NOTE... Smoothie and Power Bowl recipes are typically 1 serving so adjust according to the number of people you are serving. Other recipes are typically for 4 servings (unless indicated otherwise) and the meal plan is created for one person so adjust your recipes accordingly. For recipes that are 4 servings: For one person, cut any 4-serving recipes in half and you to get two meals. For two people make 4 servings to get two meals for each person. For four people double the recipe to get two meals for each person. MAKE YOUR WEEK EASIER... Cook on certain nights and have leftovers or batch cook on the weekends and be prepared with ready meals all week. If batch-cooking on one day for the entire week consider freezing the meals you plan to eat later in the week and simply refrigerate the meals for early in the week. CONSIDER INTERMITTENT FASTING For optimal weight loss, adding intermittent fasting to your daily routine can be a game-changer. I have two options for intermittent fasting that I like to recommend: a daily 16:8 schedule and a weekly 5:2 schedule. On both options I recommend using bone broth to make it easier--no white-knuckling required!Daily 16-Hour Fasts (16:8)When intermittent fasting on a daily basis I recommend replacing breakfast with 1 to 2 cups of bone broth and condensing your remaining two meals into an 8-hour window (fasting for 16 hours). This works best when following a healthy lifestyle plan like my Bone Broth Lifestyle. And bonus: if you consume just one cup of bone broth before your meals, you can enjoy your second cup of bone broth any other time during the day!Twice Weekly Fasts of 24-36 Hours (5:2)Five days a week, follow my portion guidelines for meals in the Bone Broth Lifestyle guide or in the Bone Broth Diet book. Two days a week, fast for 24 to 36 hours, consuming only water, and up to 4 cups of bone broth during the fasting period. I recommend non-consecutive fasting days.

Say hello to everyone's favorite culinary delight—meatballs! And why wouldn't they be? Whether it's a casual dinner or a fancy party, these bite-sized wonders never fail to steal the show. They're also great for a quick lunch over some veggies.Imagine this (I bet you can already taste it!): Juicy ground beef, a dash of spices, and a hit of veggies wrapped up in a delightful spherical package. And the best part? They are super easy to prepare!Now, the recipe I'm going to share yields 12 servings, but this convenient recipe is very easy to double—or even triple—the portions if you're prepping for your upcoming party. A whopping 36 meatballs? No sweat! Prep time: 20 min • Cook time: 25-30 min • Yield: 12 servings Ingredients 2 pounds ground beef 2 tablespoons pepper ½ teaspoon cayenne pepper ½ teaspoon chili pepper 2 teaspoon coconut oil ¼ cup minced onion ¼ cup minced celery ¼ cup minced carrot ¼ cup minced walnuts Directions Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Line an 11-x 17-inch rimmed baking pan with parchment paper. In a medium mixing bowl, combine the beef, pepper, cayenne, and chili powder. Use your hands to mix well. Melt the coconut oil in a large skillet over medium heat; add the onions, celery, and carrots and cook until they're translucent, about 4-minutes. Add the walnuts and sauté for an additional 2-minutes. Set the onion mixture aside until it's cooked enough to handle. Combine the cooled mixture with the meat and form it into 24 meatballs, roughly 1-inch in size. Place meatballs on the lined baking pan and bake 25- to 30-minutes. Notes These meatballs are the best grab and go snacks! Freeze these and stock up.
Prep: 15 min • Cook: 4 to 8 hrs • Yield: varies depending on pot size; these ingredients are sufficient for a gallon of broth Ingredients: 2 or more pounds raw* chicken bones/carcasses (from about 3 or 4 chickens)* One whole chicken and additional wings or thighs, optional* Enough purified water to just cover the bones when they are in the pot ¼ to ½ cup apple cider vinegar, depending on the size of the pot 2 to 4 carrots, scrubbed and roughly chopped 3 to 4 stalks organic celery, including leafy part, roughly chopped 1 medium onion, cut into large chunks 1 tomato, cut into wedges (optional) 1 or 2 whole cloves 2 teaspoons peppercorns 1 bunch parsley, add in the last hour Directions: Place all the bones in a slow cooker or large stockpot. Add the vinegar and enough purified water to cover everything by 1 inch. On medium heat, bring the water to a simmer. Use a shallow spoon to carefully skim the film off the top of the broth. Add all the vegetables (except parsley) and spices and reduce the heat to low. You want the broth to barely simmer. Skim occasionally over the first 2 hours, and be sure the bones are always covered with water. You will have to add water during the cooking process. Cook for at least 4 hour to 8 hours. When the broth is done, turn off the cooker or remove the pot from the heat. Using tongs and/or a large slotted spoon remove all the bones and the meat. Save the chicken for use in the broth or for another recipe. Pour the broth through a fine mesh strainer and discard the solids. Let cool on the counter before refrigerating. You can skim off the fat easily after the broth is chilled if desired. When chilled the broth should be very gelatinous. The broth will keep for 5 days in the refrigerator and 3 or more months in your freezer. Notes: * If it’s hard to get chicken bones from your butcher, you may be able to get backs and necks. * The number of pounds of bones will vary based on the size of your slow cooker or stock pot. You want the bones to fill the vessel so you can just cover them with water. If you have chicken bones from any leftover chicken, also add those. * The chicken meat is optional, but I usually add it so I have the chicken for soup or another recipe. If you have favorite herbs, you can add them to the bone broth to enhance the flavor. Thyme is particularly nice with chicken broth. You can also add garlic. Since you might use the broth in a variety of recipes, I prefer not to salt it while cooking.
These delicious Greek style burgers will hit the spot. They are easy-to-make, hearty, and loaded with healthy delicious ingredients like garlic, oregano, marjoram, and kalamata olives — to name a few. You can wrap them in leaf lettuce or a roasted portobello "bun." PREP TIME: 15 Minutes | COOK TIME: 10 Minutes | Makes: 8 Ingredients 2 pounds ground sirloin, lean ground beef or ground bison, pasture raised/grasss-fed 2-3 cloves garlic minced ½ onion, finely chopped 1 teaspoon dried oregano 1 teaspoon dried marjoram ¼ cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley ½ cup kalamata olives, pitted and chopped 1 jar (10 ounces) roasted red peppers, drained well, blotted with paper towels and chopped 1 egg 1 teaspoon Celtic or pink Himalayan salt ½ teaspoon ground black pepper Instructions In a large mixing bowl, combine meat, garlic, onion, marjoram, oregano, parsley, olives, red peppers, egg, salt and pepper. Form into 8 patties, making them thicker around the outside edge. (Burgers puff up in the center when cooked; forming them with a thinner center makes them cook evenly) Spray or brush a grill pan or grill rack with coconut oil and heat to high. When the pan or rack is hot, add the burgers. Turn the burgers once to cook on both sides, grill 4 to 5 minutes per side, or until an instant read thermometer inserted in the center registers 160 F and the meat is no longer pink. Serve on either a roasted Portobello Burger Bun (below) or wrapped in lettuce. Enjoy with optional tomato, cucumber, or other veggies. Tip: You can also cook these in a skillet or broil them in the oven. Timing should be the same. Roasted Portobello Burger Bun Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper. Gently wipe mushroom caps clean. Break off the stems and reserve for another use. Using a spoon, carefully scoop out all the gills on the underside of the mushroom caps. Place the caps on a prepared pan. Bake for 5-7 minutes on each side, or until the caps soften.
I’ve said this before, and I’ll say it again and again: health (and illness) starts in your gut. If you have poor gut health, you’ll experience anything from wrinkled skin, to weight gain, to low mood and immune health. We can thank (or blame) the standard American diet (SAD) for most of our gut concerns. We’ve been told for too long that foods like whole grains and soy are good for us — when they’re two major culprits making your gut sluggish! It’s never too late to heal or reset your gut, naturally. You can start today by changing your lifestyle and diet to support gut-healing foods. It’s no surprise what we put into our bodies plays a huge part in our gut health. How to get rid of bad bacteria in your gut? 1. Get rid of the toxins in your diet. These foods are causing inflammation in your body and making your gut sluggish: Alcohol Caffeine Conventionally raised, non-organic raised meats. These are high in omega-6 oils, which leads to chronic inflammation. (Instead, eat pastured or grass-fed meats) Yes, even whole grains. Processed foods Refined sugars (Get the full list of sugars to avoid here) Seed oils like canola, sunflower, grapeseed, and even vegetable oils. These are also high in omega-6 oils your gut doesn’t want! If you keep eating these pro-inflammatory foods, you’re poisoning your body and quite frankly, setting your gut on fire. 2. Fill your diet with fermented foods Popular fermented foods include kefir, sauerkraut, and kimchi. These are rich in probiotics — the good bacteria your intestines need for optimal digestion and health. Your gut loves food like these! Best of all, you can find them at your local health foods store. And they’re packed with flavor to add to any meal. 3. Take a powerful probiotic Taking a probiotic daily floods your body with good bacteria like lactobacillus acidophilus and bifidobacterium lactis. You may not be able to eat kimchi or sauerkraut everyday, so this is your best option if you want to quickly reset your gut. And because probiotics are filled with good bacteria, it puts your gut on the fast track to strengthening. Just don’t forget to take it every day. 4. Avoid antibiotics like the plague Antibiotics get rid of ALL your healthy gut flora — they’re the opposite of probiotics. Sometimes doctors are too quick to prescribe them. If you absolutely must take antibiotics, ask your doctor about also taking a probiotic supplement at the same time, and when you’re safe to do so. If you’ve taken a lot of antibiotics, then you REALLY need this gut reset! 5. Take a multi-enzyme supplement (preferable after every meal) Digestive enzymes break down the foods we eat so we absorb its nutrients. But certain things can decrease our digestive enzymes, like aging and chronic stress. So, even if you eat healthy foods, you may not get all the nutrition you need. That’s why I recommend you take an enzyme supplement such as carbohydrases (break down carbohydrates), lipases (break down fats), and proteases (break down proteins). 6. Consume natural gut-healers In addition to probiotics and fermented foods, these will help the walls of your gut: Aloe vera Vitamins A, C, and E L-glutamine Omega-3 fatty acids 7. Relax to support gut health Easier said than done, right? Look, I know stress happens. Your life gets busy, and maybe you forget to do a daily relaxation practice. But that’s bad news for your gut, because stress contributes to a leaky gut. Think about it... aren’t your stomach and your digestion two of the first things affected during an emotionally difficult time? In fact, your gut is where the majority of your body’s serotonin resides, which is why it’s referred to as the “second brain.” So, give yoga or meditation a try. Take a spa day, get a massage, and simply take it easy. Your gut and entire body will thank you for it! 8. Sip at least one cup of bone broth a day I’ve saved the best for last, folks! Bone broth keeps your digestion on track and helps strengthen the gut lining and thanks to the beneficial amino acids glycine and glutamine as well as glucosamine and chondroitin.Glutamine is an amino acid that supports a healthy gut by protecting the gut lining, and providing fuel for the cells of the small intestine. Glycine is an amino acid that stimulates stomach acid secretion thus supporting healthy digestion. Glycine is also a key part of bile acid, which plays a huge role in fat digestion and supporting healthy cholesterol levels.Glucosamine and chondroitin create healing mucus, which soothes intestinal distress. It also facilitates the passage of food, and strengthens the good bacteria while weakening bad gut bacteria.Did I mention it tastes delicious, too? It keeps me satisfied throughout the day and curbs any sugar cravings (take that, Sugar Demon!). No matter what your health is like right now, remember that healing (and weight loss!) starts in your gut. When you do a reset, miraculous things happen! Keep thinking Big and living BOLD!

Adding bone broth to your diet is a fantastic way to gain incredible health, wellness, and beauty benefits. Learning to make this pot of gold at home is a must with a list of healing properties that seem never-ending. There are plenty of options to meet your lifestyle needs, from the cooking tools to vegetarian and keto preferences. Here’s everything you need to know to whip up your batch of broth. Best Bones for Bone Broth When making your bone broth, you want to use the healthiest ingredients possible. That’s why I’m particular about using bones from organic, pastured, and grass-fed animals. These options are the superior choice because they are more nutrient-dense and come from healthier animals from an environment with as few toxins as possible. If you’re on a tighter budget, no worries, look for the highest quality bones you can afford. You can use the bones from just about any quality meat you like but try to be picky to ensure the most significant benefits—select bones with a lot of cartilage. Collagen in cartilage breaks down into gelatin bone broth. Great choices to scout for include: beef, bison, chicken, duck, goose, lamb, pork, turkey, and venison. Contact your local farmer, Whole Foods butcher, or head to your local farmer’s market if you can! The best portions for your bone broth are the beef knuckles, joints, feet, and marrow bones. A calf or cow's foot is extremely rich in cartilage, while neck bones are also an excellent choice. A cartilage-rich pig’s foot makes a great addition to any broth recipe without affecting the flavor. Meaty bones such as oxtail, shank, and short ribs add a ton of flavor to bone broth. If you're using chicken or turkey, use the full carcass, neck, back, and feet. Chicken feet are the best source of gelatin and provide tremendous benefits when making your gelatin bone broth. Cooking Tools for Bone Broth at Home Don't worry; there's no need to have any fancy cooking equipment to make your tasty bone broth. As a matter of fact, I have several options to make it easy for you, no matter what you already have in your kitchen. Bone Broth in a Slow Cooker The great thing about a slow cooker is” the set it and forget it” benefit. If you’re busy or away from home all day, it’s the ideal way to make bone broth. Slow cooker water won't evaporate as it does in a stockpot. Most slow cookers are smaller than a 5-gallon stockpot, so when making your bone broth in a slow cooker, remember to adjust the number of vegetables and bones according to the size of your cooker. Make sure to cover the ingredients with water and turn the slow cooker to low. Bone Broth in a Stock Pot You can just as successfully make your bone broth in a stockpot on your stovetop. Most of us have a large stockpot in our kitchen cabinets, making this the perfect method. A 5-gallon stock pot allows you to make the most broth at once, but you can simply cut down the number of bones and vegetables you’re cooking with a smaller pot. Just don’t forget to check your liquid level occasionally if you choose this option. Make sure you always have enough water to cover the bones and veggies throughout the process. Steps for Making Bone Broth in a Stockpot and Slow Cooker Place the vegetables, garlic, bones, and bay leave into a stockpot or slow cooker. Sprinkle on the salt, drizzle with vinegar, and add enough water to cover everything by an inch. Cover the pot. Cook on low for 12 to 24 hours for beef bone broth or about 6 to 8 hours for chicken or turkey, skimming the broth occasionally. Pour the broth through a fine strainer and discard the solids. Taste the broth and add more salt if needed. Chill the broth. It will keep for three days in the fridge and three months in your freezer. Bone Broth in a Pressure Cooker Pressure cookers are the quickest way to make bone broth. So, what do I recommend? As far as pressure cookers go, the Instant Pot is one of the handiest gadgets on the market. You can brown and sauté food in it as well as using it as a pressure cooker—and you can use it as a slow cooker, too. The options are limitless and allow you to add many yummy ingredients to your bone broth in minutes. I have a delicious chicken bone broth recipe you need to try if you plan to make it in a pressure cooker! Steps for Making Bone Broth in an Instant Pot or Pressure Cooker Place the vegetables, garlic, bones, and bay leaves into your Instant Pot or pressure cooker. Sprinkle on the salt, drizzle with vinegar, and add enough water to cover everything by an inch. Lock the lid of your pressure cooker in place. Cook on high for 90 to 120 minutes for chicken or turkey bones and about 2 to 3 hours if you’re using beef bones. Turn off the pressure cooker, quick release the pressure, and let the pressure cooker cool down until it’s ready to open. When your broth is cool, just strain it, and you're ready to go. Reheating Your Bone Broth Whether you're reheating your broth from the fridge or freezer, I highly recommend avoiding your microwave. Why spend all the time and effort to get the most nutrients out of your bones, then turn around and nuke them all out, right? The easiest way is to reheat your broth on the stovetop. If you've frozen and stored your broth in a mason jar, you can simply add water to a saucepan, heat to medium, and place your open jar in the water to thaw. Allow a minute or two to boil then simmer to make sure you melt thoroughly. If you store your broth in a BPA-free plastic container or bag, place the frozen contents in the saucepan with a tablespoon or two of water and heat at medium-high until warm, then simmer for a few minutes. Alternatively, you can set out overnight to thaw your broth as well. Why is Slow Cooking Vital to Bone Broth Slow cooking draws out collagen by breaking down the bones and releasing essential nutrients and minerals. This gradual process is vital because it makes nutrient-rich collagen, gelatin, and glucosamine easier for your body to digest. Why Isn’t My Broth Gelling If you aren’t getting that jiggly jello look, there are a few tips to try to get you to that gel stage: Be mindful of your bone to water ratio: Adding too much water, or not enough bones will almost certainly affect your broth’s gelling capabilities. When you place the bones in your pot, remember to fill it with just enough water to cover your bones. It may even help to simmer your bones first, and then add your veggies in during the final three to six hours. Add in a bit of apple cider vinegar: The primary role of apple cider vinegar is to pull the minerals out of those bones. However, this also softens them, helping to release more gelatin into the water. It’s a great trick to get your gelatin to jiggle. Be Patient: It does take time for collagen to break down and dissolve into water, so be patient. Gelatin takes time. This means you should simmer your chicken bones (and skin) for at least eight hours and up to twenty-four hours. For beef bone broth, it can take up to forty-eight hours of simmering. Simmer, rather than boil: The liquid's temperature needs to reach at least 140 degrees Fahrenheit for your collagen to begin breaking down into gelatin. I find 210 degrees Fahrenheit, just below boiling, tends to be the ideal temperature for making the best tasting, nutrient-dense, gelatin-rich bone broth. At this temperature, you may notice a bit of bubbling here and there, but noticeably different from a boil. Boiling your broth can actually destroy the gelling properties of the gelatin, so keep an eye on it. Why is Gelatin Essential Gelatin is essentially your cooked collagen, the protein found mostly in the connective tissue and skin. They are pretty tough, so cooking these parts breaks the collagen down nicely into the gelatin form. Gelatin provides your body with the necessary source of collagen-building amino acids. In this gelatin state, amino acids are much more accessible for your body to absorb. How Do I Incorporate Bone Broth Into My Diet Adding gelatin-rich bone broth to your daily routine should be a lifestyle change, not a fad. The benefits of this collagen-rich broth are astonishing and well worth the commitment. From healing digestive issues to fading away those dreadful fine lines, finding ways to add it into your diet will become second nature. Here are some great ways to meet your goals: Collagen protein powder supplements Daily collagen supplements are a great, convenient option when you don’t have time to cook up a warm batch of gelatin bone broth. My delicious Super Chocolate Collagen Smoothie is one of my absolute favorite go-to choices if I’m short on time, on the go, or just needing a yummy chocolate fix. As with all collagen, this convenient supplement helps strengthen hair and nails and bring back your firm, radiant skin and a healthy glow. You can even add it to your morning coffee if you prefer. Collagen protein powders are easy to dissolve in hot or cold water, so your options are limitless. I even recommend adding it to your favorite recipes, soups, or salad dressings. Yep, it’s really that simple! And if you're out and about a lot, collagen protein powders are a dream. They're so easy to take with you anywhere and prepare without hassle. What more could you ask for? Bone Broth Soup w/ Veggies On top of all that gelatin you’ll be filling up on, load up on veggies. Seriously. Vegetables are beneficial for absolutely everything. Eating your spinach or other leafy greens will provide essential antioxidants that prevent collagen destruction. Adding red vegetables, like tomatoes and beets, help protect you from sun damage while boosting your collagen production. Thank you, lycopene. Bone Broth Desserts You read that right! I have a whole resource library of insanely tasty bone broth treats for you to try. And you won’t believe you’re filling your body with the incredible powers of gelatin bone broth. Add it to your frozen snacks, keto brownies, and more. You will love my coconut mocha collagen fat bomb recipe and won’t get enough of my Blackberry and Blueberry Bone Broth Popsicles. Bone Broth Cocktails In drinks including cocktails, such as my jaw-dropping twist on a Bloody Mary. Oh yes, I have many wonderful beverages for you to enjoy while sipping your bone broth benefits! Bone Broth Options and Alternatives I have options for everyone! If you're looking for a classic chicken bone broth or more alternatives to the usual beef or bone broth, give a few of these a try: Fish Broth Whether a dietary preference or short on time, give fish broth a try. Fish carcasses are smaller and much more delicate while providing a lighter broth base. Like beef or chicken, fish bone broth is made by simmering fish carcasses or heads with water, veggies, and spices. However, since fish bones are smaller, you can draw out the nutrients in less time. In fact, some recipes require as little as one hour. You’ll reap all the same benefits in a fraction of the time. How does that sound? Duck Bone Broth Yes, please! This delicious option gives a richer flavor and is tasty in soup. If you have a bit of extra time, put your duck carcasses into a roasting pan and place it in a preheated 400º oven for roughly one hour until the bones are well browned. This step isn’t necessary, but it greatly enhances the flavor of duck bone broth. Chicken Bone Broth One of the most popular options is my quick and easy chicken broth. Here’s what you’ll need: Prep time: 14 mins • Cook time: 90 mins to 2 hours / 2 to 3 hours • Yield: Varies, about 1 gallon Ingredients: 2 or more pounds raw chicken bones/carcasses and additional wings, thighs or feet 2 unpeeled carrots, scrubbed and roughly chopped 2 stalks celery, including leafy part, roughly chopped 1 medium onion, roughly chopped 3 cloves garlic, peeled and smashed (optional) 2 teaspoons kosher salt 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar Directions: Place the vegetables, garlic, bones, and bay leaves into your pressure cooker. Sprinkle on the salt, drizzle with vinegar, and add enough water to cover everything by 1 inch. Put on the cover and pressurize. Cook on high pressure for 90 minutes to 2 hours for chicken or turkey, and 2 to 3 hours for beef. When the cooking time finishes, allow the Instant Pot to release naturally. Pour the broth through a fine strainer and discard the solids. Taste the broth and add more salt if needed. Chill the broth. It will keep for three days in the fridge and three months in your freezer. Bottom Line of Making Bone Broth There's no reason you shouldn't be incorporating this healthy, healing broth into your lifestyle with an array of cooking strategies and options to meet your needs. So, why wait? Flood your body with the powers of gelatin and reap health-promoting, anti-aging goodness today!
