Question 8

Tips for storing Breakfast Casserole to extend shelf life

Accepted Answer

Here are some pointers to make your breakfast casserole last as long as possible while maintaining its delicious taste:

• Always cool it off before refrigerating. Putting hot food into the fridge can lower the overall refrigerator temperature, potentially endangering other stored foods.

• Store your casserole in an airtight container. This helps to keep out bacteria and extend freshness.

• If possible, slice only the amount that will be eaten at a time, leaving the remainder in one piece prolongs its shelf life.

• If freezing, wrap the casserole in a heavy-duty foil or place it in a freezer bag to avoid freezer burn.

• Thaw overnight in the fridge before reheating to enjoy it at its best quality. Remember not to refreeze once it's thawed.
