Tips for Meal Prepping

🍳 Cook Smart

  • Batch Cook Staples: Prepare grains, beans and proteins and roasted vegetables in bulk!
  • Multi-Task: Cook rice while roasting veggies and simmering soup.
  • Double Up: Make double portions and freeze half for future meals.

🥗 My Best Storage TipS

  • Invest in Containers: Get a set of reusable, glass, microwave-safe containers. Use clear glass to easily see what’s inside.
  • Label Everything: Include the prep date to keep track of freshness.
  • Cool Before Storing: Let food cool to room temp before refrigerating to avoid condensation and sogginess.

⏱️ Time-Saving Hacks

  • Chop Once, Use Twice: Cut veggies like onions, carrots, and bell peppers to use across meals.
  • Use Prepped Ingredients: Buy pre-chopped veggies, peeled garlic, ginger paste, lemongrass paste or garlic paste- all save time!
  • One-Pan Wonders: Use sheet pan meals or slow cooker recipes to simplify cooking and cleanup.

🧊 Stay Fresh Tips

  • Fridge (3–4 Days Max): Cooked meats, grains, beans, and veggies keep 3–4 days in airtight containers in the refrigerator.
  • Freeze Extra Portions: Meals like soups, stews, and casseroles freeze well, up to 3 months.
  • Store Dressings Separately: Keep sauces/dressings in small containers to prevent sogginess.
