• Vegetarian Option: Skip the ham and use vegetable stock cubes for a vegetarian version.

Storing: Let the soup cool completely and transfer it to an airtight container. Store in the fridge for up to 3 days.

Reheating: Warm the soup in a saucepan over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until heated through. You can also reheat in the soup maker if it has a reheat function.
