Yes, soup is one of the easiest meals to freeze. The main thing is knowing that some ingredients handle the freezer better than others.

Let the soup cool, then portion it into containers or freezer bags. Leave a little room because liquid expands as it freezes.

Broth based soups usually freeze beautifully. Creamy soups can separate, and pasta or rice in soup may soften more after reheating.

If you are meal prepping, freeze the soup without pasta and add fresh pasta later for a better texture.

Soup is a freezer hero. Just portion it well and be aware that creamy or starchy ingredients may change a little.
