Notes
Storing and Reheating:
Store them in an airtight container in your refrigerator for about 3-4 days. To reheat, put them in the oven at 350 for about 5 minutes. You can also use the microwave in 30 second intervals, but keep in mind that the microwave may make them a little bit mushier than you'd like.
