If your creamy soup does seem to separate, a quick whisk will bring it back together. Adding a splash of milk, cream, or broth during the reheating process may stabilize the texture.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Heat and serve the soup within a couple of days of thawing. \u00a0Keep refrigerated after thawing. \u00a0Our soups and chilis have no preservatives.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-1641 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/lovensunshine.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Minestrone-Nutrition-209x300.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"209\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lovensunshine.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Minestrone-Nutrition-209x300.png 209w, https:\/\/lovensunshine.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Minestrone-Nutrition-416x597.png 416w, https:\/\/lovensunshine.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Minestrone-Nutrition.png 456w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 209px) 100vw, 209px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>An Italian favourite! \u00a0Chock full of good-for-you vegetables, pasta shells and navy beans in a flavourful tomato broth, this hearty soup is sure to please. \u00a0For extra yumminess, sprinkle with freshly grated Parmesan cheese!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":1643,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":[],"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[22,32,24,25],"product_tag":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-1640","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_cat-dairy-free","7":"product_cat-soups-chilis","8":"product_cat-vegan","9":"product_cat-vegetarian","11":"first","12":"instock","13":"shipping-taxable","14":"purchasable","15":"product-type-simple"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/lovensunshine.ca\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/product\/1640","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/lovensunshine.ca\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/lovensunshine.ca\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lovensunshine.ca\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=1640"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lovensunshine.ca\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/1643"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/lovensunshine.ca\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=1640"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lovensunshine.ca\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fproduct_brand&post=1640"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lovensunshine.ca\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fproduct_cat&post=1640"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lovensunshine.ca\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fproduct_tag&post=1640"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
