I just want to stress to you that this really is a tasty soup and is perfect for any night of the week. We like too make double batches of this just because we absolutely love it so so much.
I hope I have convinced you to give it a try by now! Because…just one more time, you should. Hands down, not being biased it’s great.
HOW TO STORE:
To keep this soup freshest place in an airtight container such as a ziptop bag or a Tupperware container and it will keep up to 4 days. The rice will soak up some of the liquid the longer it sits.
To reheat you can either but it on the stovetop in a pan or in the microwave and warm until heated through.
This can also be frozen. Since the rice in this soup is already cooked, I recommend making the soup without the rice itself, freezing the soup and rice separate is best because you will end up with a mush soup when reheated.
So cook up per directions without the rice, let cool completely and then place into a freezer bag or airtight container and do the same with the rice, or make the rice when you will serve.
It should last in the freezer for up to 3 months. To reheat let defrost in the microwave and then I like to heat it on the stove after freezing, add in your rice and heat through.
TIPS AND TRICKS:
- If you want a thicker soup, add less broth to the soup and more if you want a thinner soup.
- You can substitute the meat with other such as turkey, chicken or Italian sausage.
- Make sure that your rice is cooked before adding it to the soup.
- This can be frozen, see my tips above on that.
- You can substitute brown rice for this if you prefer.
- Any color of peppers can be used or you can use a variety of colors.
