Homemade Chicken Broth

Nothing makes a soup taste better than homemade chicken broth. Whenever I roast a chicken, I always put the remaining chicken bones in a big pot of water along with some vegetables and seasonings and let them simmer for a few hours. I strain out the veggies and bones and use up the broth immediately or store in a zip lock freezer bag and freeze. It is so simple to do and makes the most flavorful and delicious broth that I use for soups, stews and pot pies.
