Meal Prep and Storage
- How to prep ahead: You can cut the sweet potatoes the day before. Be sure to toss them with the oil and store in the fridge until you’re ready to cook.
- How to store: You can store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4-5 days.
- How to freeze: You can also freeze them by placing in either a freezer-safe Ziploc bag or container. Freeze for up to 4-6 months.
- How to reheat: Reheating this quick side dish can be accomplished by either popping them in the microwave (they'll lose their crispiness!), tossing them on a baking sheet in the oven, or warming them up in a skillet with a bit of oil.
