How to Store Leftovers:

Once cooled, store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3-4 days. When ready to warm up, use a microwave-safe plate and heat in the microwave for 1-2 minutes or until warmed.

For a freezer option, let the meatballs completely cool and freezer in a freezer safe storage bag or container for up to 3 months. When ready to serve, let them defrost and warm in a skillet or heat in the microwave.
