I'll stick with my cheaper approach-- freezing all unused scraps (peels, celery leaves, extra herbs/stems, squash innards, outer onion layers... When ready, cover w/ water & simmer. Re limited freezer space-- pour 1 cup portions into zip lock bags, label and freeze lying flat so you can store a lot. - 4/12/11

I also uses my leftovers. I wash the veggies very well and put everything I don't use (everything) into a freezer container and store until I have enough to make soup stock. Usually the only thing I will add to my frozen stems/stalks/roots etc. is an onion (skin and all) and garlic clove. - 12/14/11

This broth is very flavorfull, will make it again for sure. Another thing I do..when cooking veggies for a meal, i.e. carrots, squash, turnip etc., I pour the veg water into containers and when I get several in the freezer I put them all together in a large pot and add water and flavorings. - 11/13/10
