reheatable

Can be rewarmed

Reheatable describes food that can be warmed up again after cooling, usually without significant loss of quality.

The term appears on packaging and in recipes: The soup is reheatable in the microwave.

Some dishes are more reheatable than others—stews and casseroles fare better than fried foods.
