Can you freeze chicken noodle soup Options

[TeresaR]

I made homemade chicken noodle soup yesterday. There is a lot leftover and I was wondering if it can be frozen with good results. The soup has carrots,onion,celery,corn,green peas, spices,chicken and egg noodles. I have researched on the internet and some say the noodles freeze fine some say the noodles get soggy. I just don't know what to do. Has anyone froze this soup with good results? Thanks ladies.

i freeze mine all the time with the egg noodles and it comes out fine.

I freeze every soup, including chicken noodle, and haven't had a problem. The texture might be slightly different when you reheat, but they will still taste great!

Write down the date and use in a couple of months for a test. See how well it freezes. I think it will be fine if you don't leave it in there forever
like I tend to do.

If I was making soup with the intention to freeze, I would freeze without the noodles and then add them in when I reheat, but if you had enough leftovers to freeze, I would just freeze it with the noodles.

I have frozen it before. It's not the same when you reheat, but it still tastes good. The noodles tend to be overcooked oon the reheat. When I freeze it though, I freeze it in ziploc bags (I burp the air out). For one, it helps eliminate the ice crystals you get when you use plastic ware, so it doesn't get watered down, and two, the bags conform to any freezer space you have available.

We love chicken or turkey noodle soup here so I always make a vat of it with the intention to freeze and always use either a homemade egg noodle or a dried kluski noodle. http://www.countrypasta.com/ They freeze well since they are so dense. When they thaw they are just thicker and yummier versus a normal grocery store dried noodle that will come out soggy.
