Recipe Tips

  • Fresh or Frozen Veggies? You can totally use either fresh or frozen veggies for these soups—both work great! Fresh will give you a bit more flavor, but honestly, the difference is super subtle. So if frozen is what you’ve got, perfect!
  • Corn Soup Tip: If you’re making the corn soup, keep in mind it’s naturally a bit thicker. If you prefer a lighter texture, just add a little extra broth or water to loosen it up.
  • Squash Soup Tip: Butternut squash tends to be a bit on the runnier side, but I loved it! If you want it thicker, you can always use less liquid.
  • Kale Lover’s Choice: If you’re a fan of kale, it’s perfect for this soup—super hearty and flavorful. But if kale isn’t your thing, no worries! Swap it out for spinach for a milder, softer texture.
  • Serving Sizes: This recipe makes about 4 hearty servings or 6 smaller servings if you’re doing a light meal or want to stretch it for meal prep!

How To Store Leftovers

  • REFRIGERATE: Got leftovers? No worries! Just pop them in an airtight container and store in the fridge for 3-4 days. (Heads up: some of the liquid might separate a bit, but no biggie—just give it a good stir before reheating!) You can warm these up in the microwave or in a pot on the stove—either way, they’ll still taste amazing!
  • FREEZE: These soups freeze beautifully! I love using mason jars (just make sure to leave a little room at the top for expansion), but you can totally use freezer bags, silicone soup containers, or even ice cube trays. Once frozen, pop the cubes into a freezer bag for easy storage. These soups will keep in the freezer for 3-4 months, so you’ll always have a cozy meal ready to go!
