Storage and Reheating Tips

Store hard-boiled eggs in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.

Keep sliced vegetables refrigerated and consume within 1–2 days for the best freshness.

Store cheese in its original packaging or an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week after opening.
