Mason jar salads last 5 days! Layer dressing first, then hearty veggies, grains, greens on top.

Research shows meal prep can save 5-8 hours per week and reduce food waste by 30%. I cook grains, proteins, and roasted vegetables on Sundays. Mix and match throughout the week. What are your proven batch cooking strategies?

I freeze individual portions in glass containers. Saves so much time and money!

Label everything with dates. Use oldest items first to minimize waste.

Invest in good storage containers. I use glass - they're safer and last longer.
