Chicken broths ect

[taylormarie421 75]

I am having my surgery on Monday and I e stocked up and chicken broth and vegetable broth but is there anything I can put in them like sea salt or pepper???

Maybe pepper, but I would avoid sea salt because I think you're supposed to be on a low sodium diet. At least I'm on a low sodium diet.

I have to say I hated all the canned and boxed broths... If you can I would make some home made its so much better especially since you will be having it for a while.

Making it doesn't have to be complicated. I buy a whole chicken. But for broth only purposes just buying some cut up bone in pieces and boiling them with salt pepper and garlic powder will work. When the chicken is falling off the bone it's pretty much done. Take the chicken out and you can shred it off the bone and freeze or use for your family that week, strain any pieces out of the broth and there you go!

Store bought chicken broth is very salty already, so I wouldn't add salt to them. If you buy lo sodium broth, you're doing it for a reason, so why would u add salt to it?

I would say pepper, hot sauce, other spices would be fine. Good luck! I'll be joining you in the liquids only on Monday (surgery is Tues)

Thank you I appreciate! We're you required to do any diet prior to the Clear Liquids day before? I'm just curious? Because I see a lot of others were and its making me nervous why I wasnt

I just had my first chicken broth that I ordered from unjury.com. It was really good and has lots of Protein. I highly recommend it!

I needed the salt. The Protein Shakes generally don't have any salt and the body needs salt. Drinking broths gave me energy -- because of the salt!

I made chicken broth out of bouillon and I added a little tapatio and lemon juice its very good and just something a little different then plain broth... my hubbys idea : )
