Beckyyb93 225 Posted December 7, 2012 So, surgery is right around the corner for me and I'm going to make darn sure I have things that I can stand to eat. I already have the Protein Shakes covered but now I'm on the hunt for the best broth. I prefer chicken, but I'd like your input on your top favorite broths to drink. If I can avoid doing things like mixing the ramen packets with Water and tossing the noodles that would be preferable. I'm 100% willing to make homemade broth if you guys have a recipe that rocks I'd love for you to post it! That broth in the hospital is always so tasty but it's sure hard to find something that tastes similar from the grocery store. Thanks a bunch! Edit: Urgh, this is posted in the wrong section...sorry guys I'm new and will figure it out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
karen_golfs 11 Posted December 7, 2012 You can't beat homemade chicken or beef broth. My husband has several of each in the freezer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
free4life 16 Posted December 7, 2012 I actually ordered the chicken flavor Protein broth from Unjury. It tastes good and also provided me with protein. Wanted to be sure I got in the needed protein. I also ordered their unflavored and made sugar free Jello with that so when I had jello, and then later pudding, I was also getting protein. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
karen_golfs 11 Posted December 7, 2012 I really like the Unjury chicken broth - quite tasty. Cannot use Water over 140 degrees - the Protein will clump up. 1 LeahMae reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Beckyyb93 225 Posted December 8, 2012 To be honest, that scares the crap out of me. It sounds like it would be disgusting. Does it actually taste just like regular chicken broth? What about the texture? Is it thick or still clear like broth? I won't be able to handle it if it's thick and icky. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I would put it in a travel coffee mug with a lid to reduce the aroma. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Beckyyb93 225 Posted December 8, 2012 I read a bunch of reviews and people seem to like it so I checked to see if I could use my medical debit card which was accepted and bought the chicken broth and the unflavored for Jello and pudding. Thanks for the suggestion! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
free4life 16 Posted December 8, 2012 Just be sure as someone posted above, that the Water is not too hot or it will clump. They will also send you recipes for the unflavored for the Jello and pudding. The unflavored can also be added to broths, Soups, etc. but keep Water under 140 degrees. If you don't like it, I believe they have a "return policy". Hope all goes well!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
