After roasting a chicken I like to save the carcass freeze. When I have a few I like to make broth and freeze in cubes. The broth is so good for soup or making rice. Homeade broth is so much better than store bought broth. There are lots of recipe but I just like rough chopping half an onion, chopping a few carrots, and chopping a few stalks of celery. All kinds of fresh herbs are good and you can just add the entire herb stalk.
