Veal and Vegetable Soup

Veal and Vegetable Soup

This Veal and Vegetable Soup packed with hearty potatoes, delicate zucchini, and juicy chunks of veal isn’t just nutritious...it’s delicious and pretty much the ultimate comfort food. So, get ready to enjoy this savory soup.
One great thing about this dish is you can change out the veggies for different ones or add more every time you make it. Even better, you can use what’s seasonal or easy to find! Soup usually last 3-5 days in the fridge or you could freeze the soup for up to three months to pull out at a later date.
Some freezer tips: let the soup completely cool before freezing and some veggies are hard to freeze because while reheating, they continue to cook resulting in soft or mushy vegetables. Keep this in mind when cooking, freezing and reheating! For more comforting ideas, check out all our stew meat recipes!
