Broth Drinks

These are perfect for times when you’re feeling sick or just need a little boost. I’ve also found that they are great for controlling the urge to snack between meals. They’re only 10 to 16 calories each and take 2 minutes to heat in the microwave. Stir until the bullion cubes dissolve, and if you don’t like the chewy bits, you can strain them out.
