You can store this soup in the fridge for up to 3-4 days. I always recommend using your best judgment in terms of when you feel the soup is going bad. You can choose to reheat the soup or eat it chilled. Either route will work great for this soup. Great for meal prepping for a light and easy weekday lunch.

Best Way To Reheat Cream Of Mushroom Soup 

Simply warm up a bowl of soup in the microwave, or warm it up in a pan on the stove. If we are going to do multiple bowls, I reach for the stove for easy warm-up. Just turn on a low setting and heat slowly, stirring often. You don’t want the bottom of the soup to burn. 

Why Is My Mushroom Soup Clumpy Once Chilled 

Sometimes soup can kind of clump up once it is chilled. The easy way around this is to grab a whisk and when you go to warm it up, just whisk it really well. Or if you are planning to serve cold, then whisk in the container it is in, and then serve.
