- To Store: Keep leftover sautéed squash in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days.
- To Freeze: Allow to cool, then transfer to an airtight freezer-safe container, freeze up to 3 months.
- To Reheat: While you can always pop it back in the microwave, the best way to reheat this yellow squash and zucchini is to add it to a skillet with a touch of oil or butter. Cook over medium-low heat until heated through.
