How easy was that!!!?? This soup can be made 24 hours in advance and kept in the fridge but it’s not suitable for freezing.
Nourishing soups are so easy to make. Plus they are a great way to use up any vegetables you have lying around. Check out Grace’s super tasty Celery and Blue Cheese soup for example
