Step 1

. You can prep some of these winter dinners ahead of time, up to a few days in advance. Prep any ingredients you can (such as chopping vegetables) and store in the refrigerator until ready to use.

Step 2

Store leftovers in airtight containers in the refrigerator for a few days (check individual recipe for full storage instructions). Some of these winter dinner recipes are also freezer-friendly and can be stored in the freezer for up to 3 months (pretty much the case for all soups and stews!).

Step 3

Leftovers can be reheated on the stovetop over medium to low heat for about 5-10 minutes until warmed through, in the air fryer or the oven at 350F for 10-15 minutes until warmed through, or in the microwave in 20-second increments until warmed through (depending on the recipe). If heating from frozen, allow the dish to thaw first and then reheat.
