Healthy Mashed Potato Casserole Meal Prep and Storage

Meal Prep – Cook the casserole according to the directions, and then allow to cool completely. Scoop single servings into individual containers, or family sized servings into a large container. Or cover entire casserole with foil, then place inside a 2 gallon freezer bag (if freezing). 
Frozen Leftovers – Will hold in the freezer for 1 month.
Refrigerated Leftovers – Will hold in the refrigerator for 4 days.
Reheating – From frozen, add single servings to a microwave and heat for 3-5 minutes until warmed through, or entire casserole to the oven, covered in foil. Add to the cold oven, then set the heat to 350 degrees (as the oven heats so will the casserole) cook for 10 minutes covered at 350 degrees, then an additional 10 minutes uncovered. 
From defrosted add single servings to a microwave and heat for 1-2 minutes until warmed through, or the entire casserole covered in a 350 degree oven for 10 minutes, and then uncovered for an additional 10 minutes.

This low calorie loaded baked potato casserole is just 168 calories for a full cup!
I made this recipe for loaded potato casserole with healthy swaps like greek yogurt and almond milk. Plus I've used REAL BACON so this doesn't taste low calorie even though it is!
You can save a few more calories and get turkey bacon, but I feel like 4 slices divided between 6 people is not so bad, and it adds an amazing flavor!
