Bone broth is excellent for making soups, stews, sauces, and sautés. If you are on a paleo or AIP diet, bone broth is often recommended for sipping in between meals for extra nutrition.

Quick Bone Broth Veggie “Noodle” Soup
Bone broth is a delicious, restorative, highly nutritious broth made by simmering meat bones in water for 8-10 hours. The broth completely absorbs all the micronutrients from the bones themselves. AIP and Paleo diets both recommend consuming bone broth every day. However it can get boring, so I tend to add it to a thick soup or make a nice soup out of it from scratch, like this one.
Feel free to swap out the kale and mushrooms with any other vegetables (raw or cooked) you already have in your frig. Continue reading “Quick Bone Broth Veggie “Noodle” Soup”

Seafood Stock
This is a great recipe for lobster stock but you can also use shrimp shells, clam shells, salmon skin, fish bones, heads etc. I was surpised to see it takes three hours as I’ve traditionally done mine for only two. I’m not sure how much difference it makes but if you have the extra hour, go for three!
Red Fork Beef Stew
As soon as I get a chance to post my photos of the actual food, I will. Hopefully by this weekend. We are using a pot roast slow cooker sauce to make stew. The main difference is using cut up beef instead of the whole slab that you then have to slice before serving. I like the stew better because the meat takes on more of the flavor of the sauce.

As soon as I get a chance to post my photos of the actual food, I will. Hopefully by this weekend.

- 1 package Red Fork Pot Roast Slow Cooker Sauce
- 2.5-3 pounds Chuck roast
- 1 cups water or beef or vegetable broth
- 1 cup red wine or water; omit if using slow cooker
- 1 pound baby carrots
- 1 pound parsnips or potatoes
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
Ingredients
|
- Chop beef into stew size (large bite size). Turn oven on to 350F to preheat.
- Preheat dutch oven (or large frying pan if using slow cooker) on the stove on high heat. Add olive oil and brown beef for 5 minutes. Do this in batches so you're not crowding the meat. Add more oil by the teaspoon if needed.
- Cook in dutch oven in oven at 350F for 2.5 hours, or in slow cooker for 7 hours on low.
- Scrub and chop parsnips into large pieces. Add parsnips and carrots to the pot half-way through cooking time.
- Test meat after time suggested -- it should be falling apart. If not, leave in a little longer (20-30 minutes).
