Storage Tips
This high-protein, low-carb fitness wrap can be stored for future enjoyment with a few simple steps. After preparing the wraps, allow any leftover mixture to cool to room temperature before storing. For short-term storage, refrigerate the components separately. Place the cooked mixture in an airtight container to maintain freshness and preserve flavors. Similarly, store the avocado dressing and low-carb wraps in separate airtight containers. In the refrigerator, the cooked mixture, avocado dressing, and low-carb wraps can be kept for up to 2-3 days.
For longer-term storage, consider freezing the individual components. Ensure the cooked mixture is thoroughly cooled before transferring it to a freezer-safe container. The avocado dressing can be stored in a freezer-safe container, and the low-carb wraps can be individually wrapped and placed in a freezer bag. When stored in the freezer, these components can last for up to 2-3 weeks.
When ready to enjoy, thaw the frozen components in the refrigerator overnight. Reheat the cooked mixture in a pan on the stove until warmed through, ensuring it reaches a safe internal temperature. Assemble the wrap with the reheated mixture and fresh avocado dressing just before serving. This convenient storage strategy allows you to savor the deliciousness of your high-protein, low-carb fitness wrap at your convenience.
