When everything is ready, ladle the soup into bowls, making sure to distribute the kielbasa, vegetables, and broth evenly. Top each bowl with the remaining crispy bacon and a generous sprinkle of fresh parsley for a burst of color and flavor. Serve the soup hot, and pair it with a side of warm, crusty bread for dipping into the savory broth.
How to Serve Kielbasa Soup
Serve this soup hot in a bowl, garnished with extra crispy bacon and fresh parsley. It’s perfect on its own or paired with some warm, crusty bread to soak up all the flavorful broth. If you’d like, you can serve it with a side salad for an added crunch and freshness.
How to Store Kielbasa Soup
If you have a lot of leftover soup or want to prepare it in advance for future meals, Kielbasa Soup can be stored in the freezer. To freeze:
Cool the Soup: Allow the soup to cool completely at room temperature. This helps prevent condensation, which could make the soup watery when reheated.
Portion the Soup: Once cooled, transfer the soup into freezer-safe containers or resealable bags. Divide it into smaller portions if you want to thaw only a portion at a time. Leave about 1-2 inches of space at the top of the container to allow for expansion when the soup freezes.
Label and Date: Be sure to label the containers with the date, so you know how long the soup has been stored. It can be kept frozen for up to 3 months.
Reheat from Frozen: To reheat, thaw the soup in the refrigerator overnight or use the defrost setting on your microwave. Heat the soup over low heat on the stove, stirring occasionally. If it seems too thick after freezing, add a bit of chicken broth or water to adjust the consistency.
By storing and freezing your Kielbasa Soup, you can enjoy the comforting flavors of this dish for weeks to come without needing to cook it every time!
