How long will Best Lasagna recipe keep in the refrigerator?
You can keep your leftover lasagna in the refrigerator for no more than three to five days, if you keep it stored properly in an airtight container. If you need to store leftovers longer, see below for how to store them in the freezer.
Can I freeze Skillet Lasagna?
Yes, you can freeze any leftovers you may have. To do so, make sure your leftovers are cooled down. If the leftovers are not cool when you place in the freezer, condensation can build up inside the container. This can cause your food to get freezer burned quicker. Once the leftovers have cooled, place in an airtight plastic container or freezer bag. Leftovers, stored properly, can last for up to three months in your freezer. To reheat, ensure the leftovers have thawed completely. Place in an oven safe dish and cover with aluminum foil then place in a preheated oven for a few minutes, or until the sauce and cheese starts to bubble. You can also reheat individual servings in the microwave, if you prefer.
