Tips for meal prep
When the weather is chilly I like to make a big pot of soup every week. The one thing that helps me be able to put together soups quickly is to have the protein already cooked and ready to go into a recipe.
I like to use my Instant Pot to cook several chicken breasts that I can then shred and freeze in 4 cups portions. I also fry up several pounds of ground beef at a time in my Instant Pot with the saute function and then portion out 1 to 2 lbs and freeze.
Add-ins

Love this soup. So easy to make and so satisfying. I live alone but eat this for several meals and freeze the rest in 1 serving portions for quick dinners.
