Straight From The Garden
Do you grow a garden? What are some of your favorite veggies to grow? We love tomatoes, onions, squash and all the fresh herbs. Just think of how tasty and juicy the tomatoes are right off the vine. The flavors are so much fresher and inviting when it is straight from the garden, or at least locally grown if you don’t have your own garden. Consider signing up for a local CSA share to get those fresh and local fruits and veggies if you don’t have your own garden. You’ll love how crisp and fresh everything is!
How To Keep Homemade Chicken Broth On Hand
We like to make our own bone broth after making a whole chicken. We just hang onto the bones and innards and toss them in the freezer. We also keep a bag in the freezer where we put scraps of veggies as we chop them up for other meals. You know, the ends of carrots, celery and onions. Then, when we are ready to make a big batch of bone broth we just pull out the chicken and veggie scraps and make it on the stove or in the crockpot. You can get our crockpot bone broth recipe here.
Once the broth has been made, we freeze it in quart sized mason jars to have it on hand for recipes like this. Then, we don’t have to have the stove going all day to make a batch of soup. You can also use store-bought chicken broth as well. Just look for something that has minimal ingredients and no sugar added. There are more and more great options all the time.
Fresh Herbs Make All The Difference
We love having fresh herbs growing outside or in our kitchen because they really do make a huge difference in flavor, especially in a dish like this turkey and summer vegetable soup. We used fresh thyme and sage for this recipe, and they give this soup savory notes that pair wonderfully with the ground turkey, sweet tomatoes and other veggies. You can add additional salt and pepper to taste at the very end of cooking this soup.
