Make your own stock

Leftover chicken bones/skin/fat (you can also do just veg if you like)

3-4 celery stalks

3-4 carrots

1-2 bell peppers (any color will do)

2 onions (I like to use several kinds including yellow, green, and leeks)

garlic - fresh is best but nothing wrong with powdered

1/4 cup of vinegar

salt

pepper

add herbs that you enjoy, its all about what flavors you like. some typical might be:

  • paprika
  • thyme
  • basil
  • oregano
  • sage
  • rosemary
  1. Roughly chop your veg into nice big chunky pieces.
  2. Throw everything in a pot and fill with water to cover.
  3. Bring to rolling boil and then let cook on medium heat for at least an hour.
  4. Pour through a colander and discard the veg.
  5. Store in freezer if not using immediately.
