Slow Cooker Turkey Stock

Have you ever made Slow Cooker Turkey Stock? I thought it would be time-consuming, but it was a cinch to make. My husband came into the kitchen and said I was turning into my Grandma- that I just can’t let anything go to waste. But this isn’t just about saving money, this is about getting some great stock!

This stock can be used for all your recipes in place of chicken broth. Freeze the stock, or use within a few days. This recipe could be made with a leftover rotisserie chicken carcass instead of the turkey.

Soups to use up this stock:

• Slow Cooker Turkey Noodle Soup
• Slow Cooker Chicken Noodle Soup
• Slow Cooker Turkey and Brown Rice Soup
• Slow Cooker Split Pea Soup
• Slow Cooker Curried Chicken Noodle
• Slow Cooker Ham and Beans
• Slow Chicken Pot Pie Soup
• Slow Cooker Baked Potato Soup
