What can I Make with CHICKEN BROTH?
During hurricane season last year, I stocked up on chicken broth. Now, I’ve got a garage full of chicken broth. I use it for a few things — that I’ll post below, but could use some more tips.
So, what can I make with chicken broth?

Add flavor to rice by cooking it in a chicken broth and rice mixture.
Make chicken noodle, or chicken and rice soup by adding either rice or noodles, cooked chicken (diced) and a few of your favorite veggies.
Heat chicken broth with a piece of ginger and some onion until the broth boils. Take out the onion and ginger, scramble and egg and slowly pour it into the broth while stirring for a quick and easy egg drop soup.

Anytime we make stuffing, rice, noodles etc we add part chicken broth and part water.
When we baste a turkey we also use chicken broth to baste. It’s just a great flavor.

I use chicken broth all the time for pot roast in the slow cooker. Just add 2 cans of broth and a can of water to your roast, potatoes, and carrots and slow cook on low for 8-10 hours until roast is tender.

Make some simple chicken and dumplings by adding some cooked chicken breast to chicken broth. Add some onion and chopped celery. Salt and pepper to taste.
Let it simmer until the veggies are soft. Add a little milk and use some bisquick to make dumplings. Add the dumplings to the boiling mixture and cook until the dumplings are done.

You know the old saying, “Chicken soup is good for the soul?” Buy a box of Orzo, a type of pasta; boil orzo until cooked; add chicken broth. Delicious and healthy!

I use 2 cans chicken broth, 1 can pumpkin pie filling and combine in a pan over low heat (salt to taste). In another pan saute some onions in butter until slightly browned. Combine and enjoy some Pumpkin soup!!!

I like making chicken and rie soup. All it takes is cooked white rice(can spice it up and use any other kind of rice) and some cooked chicken shredded and some diced carrots,celery,and onion and put in a big soup pot and let it get nice and hot.

Broth can be used to flavor: Meatballs. Spagettie Sauce. Stuffing. Pesto Sauce. Chili.
Any meal your making that calls for water, replace with the broth to use your excess stock.

I know this was mentioned, but I use it to cook up rice. This is the only way I will cook it. My family won’t eat it otherwise–not enough flavor without it.
