What ingredients can I substitute in Creamy Spinach Toast?

How should I store leftover Creamy Spinach Toast?
Creamy Spinach Toast can be prepared ahead and refrigerated for a short breakfast prep window. Reheat gently or serve cold depending on the recipe style. Let it cool before sealing, and keep it refrigerated rather than at room temperature.
