How to Store the High-Protein Chicken and Vegetable Soup

To store, allow the soup to cool completely before transferring it to an airtight container and placing it in the fridge. Reheat on the stovetop over medium-low heat or in the microwave, occasionally stirring until heated through. Add a splash of water or broth to thin the soup if it’s too thick. Chicken vegetable soup will last in the fridge for up to four days when stored properly. After that, it’s best to discard it.
