They’re perfect for snuggling around a fall campfire, under a blanket on a snowy day, or in front of the air conditioner in July (I’m looking at you, summer corn chowder!) 😉

Frequently asked questions
This can be done in the oven or in the microwave. Make sure to go slow and heat until piping hot or you risk overcooking your soup the second time around.
Soup is one of my top lunch options because it contains lots of vegetables and protein. It’s also usually mostly by hand, which is a win in my book (especially after testing recipes all day!).
