Storage and Reheating
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, spread the vegetables on a baking sheet and warm them in a 350°F (175°C) oven for about 10-15 minutes, or until heated through. You can also use a microwave, but the oven will help retain their crispness.
