Storage

Roasted cauliflower and hummus nourish bowls pack a flavorful punch that can keep for up to 3 days when stored properly in the fridge. To ensure optimal storage, be sure to cover the bowl with tinfoil or an airtight container. When eating leftovers, do a smell test first, as food left at room temperature for long periods of time will often develop an off-odor, even if it is refrigerated afterward. The best practice is to store this dish immediately after cooking, as waiting too long to put it away can result in spoilage and potential bacterial growth. So go ahead and enjoy this delicious and nutritious meal while it lasts!
