Storage and Reheating Tips

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on the stovetop or microwave, adding a splash of milk or cream to loosen the sauce. Avoid overheating to prevent the sauce from separating. This dish is best enjoyed fresh and is not ideal for freezing due to the cream-based sauce.
