Tips

 
Soups freeze well, so the time taken to cook a large pot will reward you with many single serves tucked away in the freezer. Defrost frozen portions in the microwave or in a small saucepan on the stove. Make sure that soups are simmered for a few minutes after defrosting to ensure that any bacteria are destroyed.
