Who made soup this weekend? It’s that time of year! What I like most about soup days is that it can take several hours and you get to be cozying up in your house while the smells start developing. But long soup days at home can be few and far between for me. So when I do make soup, I make a big batch of it. Instead of eating it all week long until I am sick of it, I freeze the rest into single serving sizes so I can enjoy it on another day when I don’t have so much time on my hands. In a ziploc bag, soup can freeze very compactly. So even if you don’t have a deep freeze, there’s room in your refrigerator freezer to put it away for a rainy…or snowy day.
| You can use a widemouth mason jar to fold your ziploc bag over and easily ladle your soup into the bag without creating a mess. Or you can freeze soup directly into mason jars…just be sure to leave some room for the soup to expand so it doesn’t break your jar. |
