Storage and Reheating Tips

Store the chicken, eggs, vegetables, and greens in separate airtight containers in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.

Keep the dressing in a separate container and add it just before serving.

For meal prep, assemble the bowls without dressing to maintain freshness.

The chicken can be enjoyed cold or reheated gently in the microwave.

Soft-boiled eggs are best consumed within 2 days for optimal texture and flavor.
