Notes

Once cooled, store your delicious Vegetable Beef Soup in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. It also freezes beautifully! Let it cool completely, then transfer it to freezer-safe containers or bags. It should stay good in the freezer for about 2-3 months. When you’re ready to enjoy, thaw it in the fridge overnight and then gently reheat it on the stovetop or in the microwave. You might need to add a splash of water or broth when reheating to get it back to your desired consistency.
