Description

Ingredients

- Freezer-safe containers or bags
Instructions
- Allow soup to cool completely before freezing.
- Choose appropriate containers: airtight plastic containers, glass jars, or heavy-duty freezer bags. Leave headspace for expansion if using containers.
- Portion soup into desired serving sizes. This makes reheating easier.
- Label containers with the soup type and date.
