can we freeze this?

My husband made chicken parm on Sunday night.  We are going to eat it again tonight. 

I think there will be 2 more individual servings left after tonight's portions are removed from the baking dish.  (Heated directly on our plates, not that it matters.)

Tonight was the last night I would feel comfortable eating leftover homeamde chicken parm from Sunday.  So that has me questioning if we can safely freeze the last of what's leftover tonight?

I would, and then eat the frozen leftovers promptly when you are ready.

I would also be comfortable freezing for future comsumption.

This.

I think it's fine to freeze and eat.

Yes. It is ok. We do this all the time. Especially with soup since we get sick of it after 4 days of eating for lunch and dinner.

Great, thanks. We defrost things like this in the microwave and then set a formal heat setting once it's softened up a bit to begin cooking. So it would be eaten immediately upon being removed from the freezer.

Yep I'd freeze and eat later.

I definitely would.

[halfpint]

Yeah, I would. Save the chick parm! That sounds amazing.

I don't think there's a safety issue, but it might not be as pleasant to eat once it's thawed and reheated as if you had frozen it, say, the day after it was made. But since the extent of your risk is soggy breading or rubbery cheese, you might as well give it a shot.

And now I know what I'm making for dinner, so thank you for that. lol.

I would definitely freeze in individual containers for a quick easy bring to work lunch. We freeze extra leftovers all the time.

I would. The texture may be a little off on thawing/reheating though.
