*We like to think of this recipe as a framework for broth. To keep this simple, use what you have on hand and mix-up the vegetables and herbs, as it works for you. Use dried herbs, if you do not have fresh. This can be made on the stove-top, but for convenience, it is a cinch to make in a slow cooker.
