Looks so good! I love foods that taste better the next day.
Might be a stupid question so please forgive me. I am not a meal prepper. I’ll give it a try. Can I keep it until Friday? It’s veggies, lentils, some chickpeas. Or better freeze it?
I have to say that I am super proud of getting me into going.
It will be fine!
And good for you, amiga!
I keep things max three days, otherwise It goes in the fridge. Curious what others do with more experience
I made stuffed cabbage soup for dinner yesterday. Definitely needed the comfort food yesterday! And soup season is my favorite season!
I am a safety freak so I would freeze it
Yap I ageee… 3 day’s is limit.

I do push the limits I think but my brother has been meal prepping for years and he does a whole week in advance and it’s fine. My husband makes breakfast burritos and they stay good in the fridge all week, he freezes half of them and brings them out for the following week.
Cheesy toasts with black beauty tomatoes and flaky salt. Took me a minute of burning to realize I put pepper jack cheese on some (leftover from this weekend).
Home made butternut squash soup I made Sunday during football. I love adding a little curry powder to it.
Rye toast and cream cheese and a honey crisp apple. No peanut butter. Didn’t seem right.
Açaí Green Ice tea.
Oh. I got a recipe for stuff cabbage soup I haven’t tried yet. Thanks for the reminder. I loved my dad’s galumpkes but it’s too much work just for 2.
Your looks great
Not stupid at all.
From my experience 5 days on leftovers. And when in doubt throw it out.
Was 0°c (32°F) on the drive to work this morning. Proper Canadian thing to do is to use the BBQ The sun was out so it turned to be a lovely fall day. Grilled the steaks I’d brought for camping but didn’t get a chance to cook. A striploin and a boneless ribeye
A fun light dinner. Hummus, feta, sardines, veg and toasted bread.
I have to decide on what to make for dinner tomorrow!
Thank you for your input so, it’s somewhere between 3 and 5 days. My scientific, quality assurance mind now is asking X+3 to X+5 days? Or 72 to 120 hours from the point I cooked it.
If you prepped it to have some each day then have some each day and it will be fine through Friday.
If you know that you’re not going to eat it until Friday I would just pop it in the freezer in it’s little containers. In the off chance that you decide not to eat it on Friday then it is already frozen and ready for whenever you want to eat it. It’s good nutritious food, it keeps well in the refrigerator, as well as freezes great in the freezer.
I was thinking about this option too. Might actually do this as I don’t know yet about the lunch options in the new company.
