Chicken broth is a staple in our kitchen. We use it in soups, stews, and casseroles, and it’s a great way to add flavor to rice, couscous, and quinoa. A store-bought stock is convenient, but it takes a big bite out of our grocery budget when we use it in so many recipes. We found a quick and simple way to make our own broth.

It doesn’t just save money, it’s a terrific way to minimize waste and use up leftover veggies. We really like the fact that we have complete control over our stock’s flavor and sodium content. We make a batch every time we finish off a rotisserie chicken. It keeps up to 3 months in the freezer, so we always have homemade chicken broth on hand when we need it!
