Notes

Leftovers and reheating:I like leaving lamb shanks dish right in the pot and wait until its completely cool. Then i place a plastic wrap tightly on top( or a fitting lid if you have it) and store in the fridge for 3-4 days. Reheat in the same pot in Ninja Foodi until heated through.
If you don't have many leftovers, just transfer them to the air tight container. Reheat in the microwave for a minute or two.
