Best Containers for Meal Prep

Best Containers for Meal Prep to Make Life Easier

In our house Sunday is Funday! We plan and prep lunches to have throughout the week.

Whether you’re sticking to a budget, working with time constraints, trying to eat healthy or simply trying to alleviate stress in your life, meal prepping can be a life saver. Actually, meal prep can help with all of those if you just give it a chance for a few weeks. You will be amazed!

Even if you work from home, you will save so much time if you prep those meals on Sunday!

Think ahead and prepare recipes and keep resources on hand that will help you stay organized and make the meal prep time an enjoyable task.best containers for meal prep on Sunday

Before you begin, make sure you have the necessary tools to prepare and store the meals you plan to make. Containers of various sizes with an ability to stack or freeze are important assets to your meal prep organization. They’ll keep portion and calorie sizes ready to serve.

When it comes to making life easier, we know that meal prepping not only saves a lot of time, but also leads to healthier eating. If your meals are prepped in advanced, you will be able to stay on the right track with healthy eating and won’t be tempted to stray from your meal plan.

When we’re cooking hot foods like baked chicken, we always use a glass meal prep container. You can toss the hot foods right into the container without fear of heating up the plastic. The glass containers are awesome and never leak.

Plastic Meal Prep Containers –

We also use plenty of the plastic meal prep containers and we love them as well.  Toss leftovers in the containers and they are ready and waiting the next day as fresh as could be!

Washing and prepping fruits and veggies ahead of putting together a recipe is also a great way to organize your thinking and your meals. You can store the prepared items in containers in the refrigerator or freezer for instant use later on.

Bake chicken or brown your meat and store in the refrigerator to use for meal prep during the week. Keep in mind that cooked meat will stay fresh in the refrigerator for about 3 or 4 days. Cooked rice and pasta can also be cooked and stored for instant use.

Durable meal prep containers can be the best friends of meal planning men and women who are looking for ease of use and which provide the best protection for well-thought-out meals.

Freezer Bags

You can throw just about anything in a freezer bag and freeze it.  Soups, stews, and even pasta will freeze just fine in a plastic freezer storage bag.
