Can this be prepared in advance? Frozen?

Hi Rivky, Sure! You can freeze the crispy rice in a paper towel lined container. Bring it to room temperature and add toppings before serving. In general, frozen rice can be re-warmed in an oven at 400°F for 7-10 minutes. We hope this helps! Chana Tzirel from Kosher.com
