Expiration & Storage Tips
When does Breakfast Pizza expire?
A store-bought Breakfast Pizza often comes with a 'Best Before' date but generally, if unopened and refrigerated, it should last around 1-2 weeks. Once opened, the pizza should be consumed within 3-4 days. If you choose to freeze the pizza, it can be kept safe indefinitely but for the best quality, try to use within 1-2 months.
How do you tell if Breakfast Pizza is bad?
Check for signs of spoilage like a bad smell, mold or slime. If the pizza has become soggy, or if the color of the toppings has changed or if it has a sour or off-putting smell, it's probably bad and should be discarded. When dealing with frozen pizza, if you see freezer burn or discoloration, it is likely that the quality has been compromised although it is still safe to eat.
Tips for storing Breakfast Pizza to extend shelf life
• Always refrigerate your pizza, ideally in a sealable container to prevent it from absorbing the odors of other foods
• If you want to freeze the pizza, wrap it tightly in foil or plastic wrap and place it in a zip-top bag before putting it in the freezer
• To reheat, oven heating is recommended to retain the crust's texture and flavor. Heat at a lower temperature, around 275°F, to slowly restore its temperature without making it overly crispy or drying it out.
