How to Store Steak Avocado Roasted Corn Bowl with Cilantro Cream Sauce

Considering making this ahead? You can keep it in the fridge for about 3 days. Just pack the components separately—the avocado can be picky about hanging out too long once it’s cut (nasty brown spots, you know what I’m talking about). To reheat, just pop it in the microwave for a minute, and you’re back in business!
