Healing Cabbage Soup
This cabbage soup is what my body demands anytime I have a cold, but it’s also quite good on a chilly winter night. It’s quite simple to prepare; for a heartier supper, toss in some more veggies, leftover chicken, or rice.

How to Keep Soups in Storage
After allowing the cabbage soup to cool, pour it into an airtight container. For up to five days, keep it refrigerated. Warm up again on the burner or in the microwave.
Is Freezing Cabbage Soup Possible?
Indeed! Soups like cabbage freeze quite nicely. Spoon the chilled soup into serving-sized freezer bags (or other freezer-safe receptacles), press out any straggling air, and store flat in the freezer. Put a label with the freeze for a maximum of three months after the date. Reheat on the stovetop after thawing in the refrigerator for the night.
