Guess I could repost this.
These are the veggies I used for a large pot of stock. You could cut it in half.
1 large sweet potato
1/2 rutabaga
3 rainbow carrots, and their greens. 1 purple, 1 yellow, 1 orange.
1 large sweet onion
2 cipollini onions
1 bulb of garlic separated, and smashed
A handful of snow pea pods
4 stalks of celery
4 radicchio leaves
2-3 baby bok choy leaves
1/2 red bell pepper
1/2 yellow bell pepper
10 dried shiitake mushrooms, submerged in water, and cleaned of dirt.
Parsley stems (cut about inch, and a half off the bottom of an entire bunch)
1 full leaf of this, is what I'll call my special ingredient: These are the veggies I used for a large pot. You could cut it in half.

Seasonings 8-15 pink peppercorns, TBSP of both dried rosemary, and dried Marjoram.
It was all cut into large pieces (besides the mushrooms, pea pods, and special ingredient, which were left whole) and simmered on low for 25-30 hours. If you know how to make stocks, I won't get technical on things like straining, etc. Just fill a bowl with the veggies, and refill that same bowl to that line with cold water. Add little bits more if you think it's getting low during cooking. I lid up for overnight.
It was really good, and didn't need any salt. Could probably consume it as is, or you can use it for whatever. The scraps can feed the animals, or be thrown into compost. Can you believe this was my first attempt? Mom did provide input, but this was my recipe.
