  • Make ahead of time. Form the meatballs up to 24 hours in advance and keep them covered in the fridge until you're ready to cook them.
  • STORE leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 4-6 days. Warm in the microwave or over the stove.
  • FREEZE. Put the prepared recipe for porcupine meatballs on a cookie sheet or a plate and cover with plastic wrap. Put them in the freezer for a couple of hours until frozen solid. Transfer to a freezer plastic bag and freeze for up to 3 months.
