Notes
Read all my tips above.
Leftovers can be stored in a sealed container in the fridge for up to 3 days and reheated in the microwave. However, additional broth or water will need to be added when reheating since the pasta absorbs a lot of the liquid and that makes the soup very thick and chunky.
