Realized I was throwing away all my vegetable scraps after a coworker showed me her freezer bag of stock bones
I was just tossing carrot peels and onion ends in the trash for years until my friend Jen said 'you know that's free broth right' and now I have three quart bags of scraps in my freezer, any of you actually keep a dedicated scrap container on your counter or is that too much?

Man I read somewhere that keeping scraps on the counter can attract fruit flies so I just keep a bag in the freezer door, works fine. I save carrot peels, onion skins, celery ends, mushroom stems, even parmesan rinds if I have them. Throw it all in a pot with some water and simmer for a few hours, strain it out and you got way better broth than anything from a box.
