WW Friendly Low Fat Crock Pot Turkey Bone Broth

Making turkey or fresh chicken bone broth (stock) is pretty easy anyway, but using a slow cooker makes the process virtually effortless.

For very little work you are rewarded with several cups of delicious homemade broth, free of the artificial stuff often found in the boxed kind.

What's not to like about that?

The Skinny on Crock-Pot Turkey Bone Broth

Now that I know how easy it is to make crock pot turkey broth, I'll probably never use the stove top again.

You can store your healthy homemade turkey broth in the refrigerator for a few days.

Or, portion it out and freeze it. I like to divide it into 2-cup portions that I place in zipper lock freezer bags. I lie them flat on a plate in the freezer until solid so that they are easier to stack/store.
