- Storing in the refrigerator: Store in an airtight container for up to 4 days. This soup does thicken as it sits. Add broth or water to give it a thinner consistency, as needed.
- To reheat: Reheat on the stovetop on medium-low heat or microwave individual portions.
- To freeze: Once the soup is completely cooled, transfer it to a freezer-safe container or place it in freezer-safe bags. It will be kept in the freezer for up to 3 months. Thaw overnight in the fridge and reheat the next day.
