Ok, let’s talk instant gravy – are you ready for it because I know everyone loves it.  Don’t shoot the messenger. I can not find any instant gravy tin in the supermarket without MSG, and/or caramel food colour. There’s absolutely no real food in instant gravy, it’s like pouring a chemical cocktail over your delicious meal you’ve just made.

Tracey and I live for gravy, in fact I’ve been known to eat gravy on fish before. I used to have it on every meal, basically 7 nights a week. I used to pour instant gravy into my daughters baby mash from probably 12 months old, you know, just to give it a bit of extra ‘yummy’ flavour. I had no idea what was in one of these tins, and neither do thousands and thousands of others. It saddens me to think I was feeding my baby MSG and artificial ingredients linked to headaches, skin irritations, restlessness and I didn’t even know it! Was it her fault that she couldn’t get to sleep that night, or was it the food I was feeding her?

Please, I encourage you to make your own, it’s as fast as supermarket gravy and our version is packed with hearty, good for you ingredients. Bone broth is so amazingly good for your gut health, your bones, skin, hair and immune system. It’s affordable, delicious and I’m sure you will love it.

You will need some bone broth to make our instant gravy, any flavour will work.
