It’s been another yoghurt and stock weekend
2kg Yoghurt and 24 jars of stock…..we are going through so much lately.

Super simple - keep those roast chook carcasses - throw them in the slow cooker and let them do their thing. I only left these for around 10 hours in the slow cooker (the longer the better)

Some things should never be thrown away

Back on June 23, I posted about our Broccoli & Beets with some in their little cones - these would have to be one of my best Temu buys yet. Today I took them off the beets and they have loved their little winter cocoon.
