Recipe Notes
Potato Bites Meal Prep Storage Instructions
Store the potato bites in the fridge for up to 5 days and in the freezer for up to 4 months, both held in airtight containers.
Potato Bites Meal Prep Reheating Instructions
The potato bites can be reheated in a pan over medium heat until hot throughout. Alternatively, the easiest method is to put it in the microwave, in bursts, until hot throughout.
Additional Notes
The potatoes aren’t supposed to be crispy. If we were to cook them that far, they would be hard and chewy upon reheating. Cooking them to a soft point allows them to soak up the sauce from the beef and create a better experience upon reheating.
