Storage and Reheating Tips

Store leftover chicken, mashed potatoes, and salad separately in airtight containers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Reheat the chicken in a skillet over medium heat or in the microwave until warmed through.

Add a splash of milk when reheating mashed potatoes to maintain their creamy texture.

The tomato onion salad is best enjoyed fresh and should not be reheated.

For best results, prepare the salad shortly before serving.
