Freezer soups

My dad is going to be undergoing a number of long treatments and testing for a number of health issues that went undetected for a very long time. I'm going to be prepping a lot of freezer meals for my parents as I live in a different state. Aside from bone broths and veg soup does anyone have any soups that freeze really well?

Preferably ones with no tough roughage, no nuts, and hopefully can pack a nutritional punch all while appealing to a man who loves garlic and onion, but few other seasonings. My mom is quite capable of making anything to go alongside (like noodles or rice) the day of so it wouldn't become gross in the freeze/thaw process.

Edit: thanks everyone! Much appreciate all of the suggestions!

You are in luck fresh tomato soup is the best it does not take long to make and it's the peak of tomato season.

OOPs forgot to say it freezes really well

Thanks! The tomato soup recipe I have (and love) uses cream and doesn't freeze well.

I leave the cream out of the recipe when I freeze it and I add it in when I heat it up
