What to do with unused veges?

So it's been a busy few weeks and because I didn't meal plan, we had a lot of leftover veges. I recently saw a post from our farm, asking members what they did to prepare for the new box of produce... some members suggested making vegetable broth. I thought this was an excellent idea and tried it last weekend. To my surprise, it was so easy- I made a quick soup for the kids with some of it, and the rest I froze for a future soup base. I most likely will do that again this week. Fill a stock pot with water, throw all the veges you have into the pot, stems and leaves. Boil for about an hour. Strain out all the veges, and it's ready to go.
