This one’s a classic for a reason. Swap water or basic stock for bone broth in any soup or stew recipe to instantly level up the flavour and nutrient profile. Think chicken noodle soup, beef stew, vegetable minestrone — all made richer and more satisfying.
Tip: The longer the simmer, the more the broth infuses every bite.
Transform your rice, quinoa, couscous, or even oats by cooking them in bone broth.
Not only does it add a savoury depth of flavour, but it also sneaks extra nutrients into dishes you’re already making.
Try it: Bone broth-cooked brown rice makes the perfect base for stir-fries or grain bowls.
Risotto is all about slowly adding warm liquid as the rice cooks — so why not make that liquid bone broth?
It’s a luxurious way to turn a comforting dish into a gut-friendly, collagen-packed meal.
Idea: Mushroom bone broth risotto with a sprinkle of parmesan is pure heaven.
This might sound surprising, but a small amount of unsalted bone broth can disappear into a smoothie without altering the taste — especially when paired with strong flavours like berries, cocoa, or peanut butter.
Tip: Freeze bone broth in ice cube trays and pop one or two cubes into your smoothie for an effortless nutrient boost.
Swap some of the liquid (milk or water) in your savoury pancake or waffle batter with bone broth.
It’s a great way to create hearty, protein-packed versions perfect for breakfast or brunch.
Delicious combo: Serve with smashed avocado, poached eggs, or roasted tomatoes.
Bone broth makes an amazing base for sauces and gravies. Whether you’re deglazing a pan for steak sauce or whipping up a gravy for Sunday roast, broth adds richness that water simply can’t match.
Bonus: It reduces the need for heavy creams or butter without sacrificing taste.
From lasagnas to shepherd’s pies, many baked dishes require some liquid. Bone broth can easily slide in here, boosting both flavour and nutrition.
Idea: Add broth when layering lasagna or mixing the filling for a hearty pie.
Feeling adventurous? Try making healthy popsicles by blending fruit juice with cooled bone broth and freezing them.
Or make homemade gummies using bone broth, fruit puree, and gelatin — a fun way to boost your daily intake (especially popular with kids!).
Stir-fries cook quickly and benefit from a splash of liquid at the end to bring everything together.
A ladleful of bone broth instead of soy sauce or water adds richness and keeps the veggies vibrant.
Beyond basic sipping, you can jazz up your bone broth cup with ingredients like:
Treat it like you would a fancy tea or wellness latte!
Bone broth isn’t just a health trend — it’s a versatile kitchen staple that can supercharge almost any meal.
Whether you’re blending it into smoothies, stirring it through risotto, or sneaking it into desserts, there are endless ways to weave bone broth into your everyday routine without getting bored.
Eating for beauty, gut health, and vitality has never tasted so good!
