If you have leftovers, let them cool down to room temperature, then store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, warm in the oven or microwave until heated through. You can add a pinch of red pepper flakes for spice and mix in other vegetables like Brussels sprouts or sweet potatoes for variety.
