Make a freezer meal. Follow the directions as written, except for adding the bread crumbs. Make sure it is in a freezer-safe dish, wrap it tightly with plastic wrap, and again with aluminum foil, and freeze for 2-3 months. Thaw in the fridge overnight, top with breadcrumbs and bake. 
Store leftovers in an airtight container(s) in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, or freezer for 2-3 months.
