Instant Pot Tuscan Chicken Pasta

I would suggest freezing it in a airtight container, in a foil pan or even in a freezer ziplock bag. All three ways will work just fine.
Because it is already cooked, all you have to do it take it out of the freezer, let it thaw over night, and heat it up. It’s that simple.
