2 yellow onions
1 red onion
2 cloves garlic
5 carrots
4 green onions
4 stalks celery (I used tops of the entire bunch, including leaves)
about 2 tsp dried parsley
about 2 tsp dried thyme
1 tsp salt
bay leaf

Roughly chop onions and smash garlic (don’t need to remove peels)
chop everything else roughly, put in pot with 2 quarts water, bring to
low boil, cook 1 1/2 hours, strain broth. (Carrots taste good but
other vegies are too mushy for my taste, so I toss them).
