Got extras?

If this hearty sopas recipe has got your tummy filled to the brim, you can keep the leftovers for another day! The chicken soup should be stored on its own without the macaroni.

When you want to have it again, just reheat in a pot over medium-low heat and add broth, water, or milk as needed.
