Ginger, Turmeric & Egg Soup – A great way to serve bone broth
If you are already making your own bone broth, this is a great way to serve it up to keep things interesting as you are probably drinking it everyday and if you are new to bone broth, you can check out my three ways to make bone brothย hereย – 2 day chicken bone broth, pressure cooker bone broth or slow cooker bone broth. I always make my bone broths plain, with no salt and no vegetables so that I can freely flavour it when I am ready to serve it up or use it in any type of cooking. This ginger and turmeric soup makes a cheap, quick and filling lunch combining the anti-inflammatory properties of fresh turmeric and the gut healing properties of bone broth.
