Recipe Notes
Shakshuka Meal Prep Storage Instructions
The shakshuka will last 3-4 days in the fridge and 3 months in the freezer. Allow to thaw overnight in the fridge before reheating.
Shakshuka Meal Prep Reheating Instructions
To reheat, the best option is the microwave. Heat in 1-minute bursts until the sauce and eggs are hot. Alternatively, it can be reheated in a pan over medium-high heat. If reheating in a pan, you may need to add a splash of stock to rehydrate.
