Notes

To store: Allow this soup to come to room temperature and then store in air tight container in fridge. When ready to eat, be sure to reheat all the way through until thoroughly hot. This soup will keep in the fridge for up to 3-4 days. The rice will soak up some of the liquid as it is stored, but the flavor gets better because of it. If you like more liquid add a bit more broth before reheating.
