And I’m not complaining – it was glorious. But I’m kind of ready now to reacquaint myself with some veggies. And this soup does the trick.

Once cooled, transfer the soup to a freezer-safe container and pop into the freezer. Eat the soup within 3-4 months.
To defrost the soup move the container from the freezer to the fridge and leave it there to thaw. This can take up to 24 hours. Alternatively, you can use the defrost setting on your microwave to thaw the soup.

Transfer the soup into a saucepan and place onto the stove. Heat over a medium heat and bring to a gentle simmer for 3-4 minutes, stirring regularly. Ensure the soup is piping hot before serving. Alternatively, reheat the soup in the microwave for 2-3 minutes, stirring halfway through. Cooking times will vary depending on the microwave itself. Ensure the soup is piping hot before it is served, if it is not microwave for a little longer.
