      Hi Lorna! I made 2 adult portions and my 2 boys portion with this. I don’t like how soups freeze, I prefer not to. But my mother in law freezes it all the time and she loves it. I personally think they go to watery but maybe try it out with a bowl and see if it works for you.

    Hi Ursula,

    You have turmeric powder in your picture but it’s not mentioned in the recipe. How much should be added to the recipe please?

    Thanks so much!
