Notes
- If you have leftover soup, cool completely before pourning into freezer containers, leaving ½ to 1 inch at the top of the container for expansion. Store in the freezer for up to 3 months. Thaw frozen soup in the refridgerator overnight, then reheat over medium heat or in the microwave until hot.
- Garnish each bowl of hot soup with a spoonful of Cheddar or grated Parmesan cheese and a sprinkle of fresh thyme leaves or dill. Toss up a baby kale salad with an orange vinaigrette and toasted pecans to serve alongside.
- Try using tender bite-size potatoes—they can be red-skinned with a creamy interior or yellow-skinned with a golden interior.
