Storage and Reheating Tips

Wrap leftover sandwiches tightly in foil or plastic wrap and store in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours for best freshness. If preparing ahead, keep the vegetables separate and add them just before serving to prevent soggy bread. These sandwiches are best enjoyed cold, but they can be lightly toasted in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for a few minutes if a warm sandwich is preferred.
