How to store macaroni and cheese?

Storing homemade macaroni and cheese:

After cooking the macaroni and cheese, let it cool slightly.

Transfer the macaroni and cheese to an airtight container or freezer-safe bag.

Press plastic wrap directly onto the surface to prevent a film from forming.

For best quality, consume the macaroni and cheese within 3 days if refrigerated or within 2 months if frozen.

Storing the boxed version:

Store unopened boxes in a cool and dry place.

Once opened, transfer the remaining macaroni and cheese to an airtight container or reseal the original packaging.

Consume within the expiration date for the best quality.
