Gut Healing Bone Broth

INGREDIENTS

• About 3 lbs chicken or beef bones

• 2 tbsp of olive oil

• 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar

• 1 medium yellow onion, roughly chopped

• 3 celery stalks, roughly chopped

• 2 large carrots, roughly chopped

• 1 cup of mushrooms, I like to use a mix of shiitake and button mushrooms

• 5 cloves of minced garlic

• 1 inch chunk of ginger

• 1 tbsp of ground tumeric

• Fresh herbs, either cilantro, parsley or thyme

• 2 bay leaves

• Generous pinch of sea salt

• Water to cover the bones

DIRECTIONS

• Set your oven to 400 F

• In a bowl mix the bones with olive oil and roast for 10 to 20 minutes, until the bones are browned

• Place the roasted bones into a slow cooker, cover with water and add the apple cider vinegar - let sit for 30 minutes

• Add the rest of the ingredients and add more water if necessary, you want everything covered by about 2 inches if possible but make sure there is at least an inch of space at the top otherwise it will all bubble over

• Cook on low for 24 hours (I check it every few hours to see if it needs more water)

• Strain the liquid and let it cool before storing it

• I like to sip on a cup of bone broth like I would a tea but you can make soup with it if you prefer.

• Enjoy!
