This potato and leek soup recipe can be frozen. Let it cool to room temperature, then seal in a ziplock bag for up to four weeks.
Freezing Instructions:
Allow the Potato and Leek Soup to cool to room temperature. Pour into a freezer-proof zip lock bag and 3/4 fill the bag. Freeze laying the bag on its side so it sits as flat as possible. Once frozen, stack it upright so it doesn’t take up much room. Remember to write on the bag the contents and the used by date.
