Recipe Notes
Top tips
When adding ingredients to the jar, add the noodles first, followed by the vegetables and seasonings, and add the cilantro last/on top. It will stay fresher and avoid wilting that way.
Make sure your jar is heatproof and has a leak proof lid, especially if you plan on taking this on the go- we definitely want to avoid leaks in your bag or car! I swear by Weck jars- used this Weck jar to make this soup and it was perfect for one portion! It’s a 3/4 liter size and holds about 28 ounces.
Consider batching this recipe to make more for an easy, healthy meal prep option for the week!
You can store the soup ingredients covered in the jar in the refrigerator for 3-4 days.
