I don't discard any of it actually.

I replant the green onion bulb to make more green onions. I rarely buy
them because of that. I make vegetable broth from most peels and root
portions. I LIKE the stems of Broccoli. I add the papery onion skins
to the vegetable broth so it colors up nice.

The vegetable broth is generally made every 2 weeks from bits gathered
over the last 2 weeks.
