HOW TO STORE:
These are best eaten the same day, but if you do by chance have leftovers then you can store in an airtight container or ziptop bag in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
We usually don’t have many leftovers because these puppies go fast, but sometimes when we make larger batches we do, so we do end up storing them.
