Making your own vegetable stock is SO easy. Here is what you do: Save all your vegetable peels and scraps; onion peels, carrots peels, sweet potato peels (anything except peppers) and add water to them. Let it boil for 1 - 2 hours, strain it and use it! If you don’t have peels and still want to make your own, just add onions, celery, carrots, sweet potatoes, ginger and anything else you want to throw in and boil it for an hour or so and you will have stock! And if you still don’t want to do any of that you can just use water, it will just be a bit less flavorful.
