FAQ
What’s the best way to store this dish?
Place in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Then reheat gently on the hob - a gently reheat is necessary when recipes have cottage cheese in them!
Can this be frozen?
I wouldn't recommend freezing this due to the high portion of cottage cheese in it.
