Homemade soup thermos

I'm on a new health kick and would like to take homemade soup to work- ideally I would love it if it could stay hot. Any recommendations on thermos type things? No idea what's best and would love recommendations. Thanks!

I'd get a wide-mouth one; easier to fill, & chunky soups will pour easily.
Fill it with boiling water for a minute or so, empty & pour in hot soup.
It will keep hot for hours.

I can’t recommend it enough!
Not just soup- I’ve had pasta in it and risotto and they were piping hot :)

Depending on how big you want these work great. Doughter said her soup or pasta was still too hot at lunchtime.

Thermos 186394 FUNtainer Food Flask, Floral, 290 ml www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B007V2G23O/ref=cm_sw_r_apan_glt_i_7YC76W5WYAYBT4DHS2AT

You can dishwasher it fine, it's just the pattern comes off after a while!

The Thermos brand itself is the top performer. I have the deep red stainless steel one for drinks and it's excellent. They do one which is wider and shorter called a Food Thermos. We have a work microwave but if we didn't I'd have the food one too.

I got a kids Thermos brand food flask for DD and it doesn't leak and keeps food hot for at least 5 hours so happy with that.

Just remember to preheat it by pouring boiling water in and leaving it for 5-10 minutes before you fill it with soup.

Look in TK Maxx if you have one near you, that's where I got the Thermos branded one and it was only £5.99, they had a few in there although it's always a bit hit and miss on whether they'll have what you want.
