  • Fridge: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
  • Freezer: Assemble in a freezer-safe baking dish and cover tightly with 2-3 layers of plastic wrap and finish with heavy-duty foil. Freeze for up to 3 months.
  • Reheating:
    • From the Fridge: Reheat individual portions in the microwave in 30-second intervals or bake at 350°F for 15–20 minutes until heated through.
