Keto Bone Broth
I really enjoy making my own bone broths for soups, and I especially love the taste of this Keto Bone Broth recipe. Everyone has his or her own special techniques for making broth, and I am by no means looking to compete against those who put in a lot more effort into making it more magical. This is just my simple way of making it! Another thing I love about this recipe is that it goes along with so many different dietary lifestyles. The Keto Bone Broth is also dairy-free, gluten-free, low WW points, Paleo, and Whole30-friendly!
“I save bones from previous dinners and store the bones in a Ziploc bag in the freezer. I simply fill the bag up until I have enough to make broth or have a chicken carcass from baking a whole chicken. It makes it so easy!”

Bone Broth

I really enjoy making my own bone broths for soups. I save bones from previous dinners (i.e. pork chops, steaks, Boston butts, chicken thighs, etc.) by cutting all the meat off and storing the bones in a Ziploc bag in the freezer. I make sure to label it with “bones for making broth” and the date of when I first put the bones in the bag. I simply fill the bag up until I have enough to make broth or have a chicken carcass from baking a whole chicken. I’ll even use the herbs and citrus that was used to cook the meat, because it adds even more flavor to the broth. Everyone has his or her own special techniques for making broth, and I am by no means looking to compete against those who put in a lot more effort into making it more magical. This is just my simple way of making it!

    Hi Alane, this is a very easy and quick recipe thanks a lot of sharing. I like making bone broth but I always end up getting a lot of foam coming up. Do I need to discard the foam or leave it? Does it even help with the flavor?
