Notes

Storage tips

After the soup is cooled, pour it into glass bowls or containers and refrigerate for up to 5 days. I like using these 2-cup glass pyrex bowls for portion control.
You can also freeze this stuffed pepper soup. After it cools, pour it into plastic or glass storage containers and freeze. Make sure to leave about an inch from the top for expansion. Or you can freeze into 1-cup blocks using these silicone trays (Souper Cubes). If you want more tips and tricks, then read my tutorial on how to freeze soup.
