Storing and Reheating

These comforting, gluten free soups can be stored in airtight containers in the refrigerator for about four to five days. They will keep fresh this way without any trouble. 

However, if you want to store them for longer, you can preserve them in airtight containers in the freezer for two to three months. 

To reheat, allow it to thaw in the refrigerator overnight, then heat on the stovetop. Warming it in a microwave might cause it to splash everywhere.

Check individual recipes for the best way to store and reheat.                                                                                                  

What Can I Eat with These Soups?

You can eat all of these dishes as they are. Each of these delectable soups can serve as a quick meal or pick-me-up without any side dishes. 

However, if you want to turn them into full-on dishes, enjoy each soup with a side of vegetables like roasted cauliflower, broccoli, brussels sprouts, or asparagus. Alternatively, you can have it with a side of salad like this keto coleslaw or bacon broccoli salad.
