What do Bone Broth, Veggie Broth and Elderberry Syrup have in common?
How does immune boosting, inflammation busting, antioxidant loaded, cold and flu preventing, digestion helping sound? And those are just a few of the benefits in these marvelous homemade concoctions, plus they all taste fantastic and have multiple uses!
Three Immune Boosting Recipes
Before sugar plums start dancing, turkeys are basting, pies begin baking, cookies are rolling…first, let’s work on boosting our immune systems, because full confession, I love all things Thanksgiving and Christmas, especially all of the wonderful goodies and foods, but I do recognize that we need to keep our systems running and it’s a known fact that sugar depresses the immune system.
Here are three recipes that you can make over the weekend, that separately or together will do marvelous things for your body!
First give this amazing Beef Bone Broth a try, I’ve long know about the benefits, but honestly hadn’t made it — until a couple of weeks ago! And WOW, have I been missing out, BIG TIME! Cook with it, sip it, make it!
Next, try this incredible Homemade Vegetable Broth, infused with great flavors and loaded with vitamins and minerals! Wonderful to use anywhere you’d normally use vegetable broth, or drink it all by itself.
Lastly, as a daily tonic, for all ages! Give this Homemade Elderberry Syrup a whirl, for everyone from your toddler to Granny! Stir into yogurt, drink it straight, toss a shot into your smoothie.
Plan for it, or save it for after the new year, when we all decide to eat healthier, but I encourage you to try and make at least one of these before the holiday season. Let’s arm ourselves for the upcoming flu and cold season!
May the Lord bless and keep you, may He make His face shine upon you, may He give you rest when you are weary, strength when you are weak, hope when you are hopeless.
Love this his dear friend! Will try them on the family! Surely I will have to be sneaky in presentation:) Hugs! Dana
I hope you can creatively get them to eat them. The broths while wonderful by themselves may seem a bit more palatable if made into a delicious soup! The syrup I don’t think you’ll have to disguise! Pray you are healing!!
Hey K,
This looks really intriguing! Do I use in place of ‘cooking stock’ in recipes or does the recipe actually need to call for bone broth? Is it a 1:1 ratio?
Love,
K
1:1 my friend. Doesn’t need to call for bone broth at all, you’ll just have a richer more flavorful broth less likely to need to add a lot of additional seasonings to whatever you put it in. Thanks K, so appreciate you!!
