2. Cure All Chicken Soup
Chicken soup is known as “Jewish penicillin” for a reason—when done up from scratch with homemade bone broth and whole ingredients, it’s packed with nutrients and goodies to help us heal while keeping us well-nourished and warmed up with love.
3. Roasted Beef Brisket
This beef brisket is full of flavor with seasonings like black pepper, garlic, onion, rosemary, and thyme.
