They should keep OK but will be soft when thawed out.

You ideally should blanch them first, then a cold rinse and dry - freeze first on a tray to prevent clumping then bag up.

Either that or make more soup and freeze in portion sized containers.

I'd plump for mamya's option.

Left over veg is great in a curry, get some pataks curry paste there are lots of different types I like the Madras, mix it with a tin of tomatoes, throw in all your veg, I used courgette peppers cabbage mushrooms and onions leeks any thing at all. It makes a big pan full and it freezers great so you can portion it in bags
and you have a nice meal at your finger tips.
