- Optional variations: Add mushrooms to the mix for an earthy flavor, or dress up your sandwiches with hot peppers for a spicy kick.
- Storage or reheating tips: Leftover filling can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the microwave or in a skillet over medium heat before serving.
