so we have done this for years, and it makes so many dishes taste better...and conserves
so get a 1 gallon freezer bag...and every time you chop a vegetable - onion, cauliflower, broccoli, carrot ends, bean ends...anything...whatever scraps you usually toss, put them in the freezer bag..back in the freezer till next time you cut veggies, and over time you will fill the freezer bag
put the contents in a big pot, fill with water to just cover everything, bring to boil then simmer for 90 min to 2 hours...strain the broth and put into smaller containers (ie pint and quart plastic containers...freeze some and keep one in fridge...
next time you make rice which you'd normally make with water, or anything that calls for vegetable broth, use this...you'll be shocked at how much better it tastes...
if you want, you can so the same when you have picked a chicken clean, throw this in with the leftover veggie scraps, and make a stock much the same way...
