Chicken Broth

I love to have homemade chicken broth on hand--it's great for soups and sauces and even rice and grains. If you don't do chicken you can do vegetable broth too {though I don't have a recipe for that}.

This is what I do: Enjoy a roasted chicken, add some rice and broccoli and you've got a superb meal. Put the carcass in the crock pot and cover with water, cook on low for 10 hours. Remove the carcass and if there is a lot of meat still on it pick it off and use in soup or enchiladas or feed it to the dog. Then you can either freeze or refrigerate the broth depending on how soon you are going to use it...sure beats buying broth!
