Meal prepping can feel a little like magic. You open your fridge, and suddenly, there is a collection of perfectly portioned meals waiting for you.

With meal prep, you save time, reduce stress, and keep money in your wallet. When dinner is ready to go, you are less tempted to grab takeout on busy nights.

Here’s how to make the magic happen.

1. Choose your recipe.

Pick a dish you want to try and decide if you wish to create make-ahead or batch-cooked meals. Make-ahead meals are fully cooked dishes that you refrigerate and reheat within three to five days. Batch-cooked meals are large portions of food that you separate into individual portions and freeze. They can last for several months.

Both methods help with time management, reduce food waste, and make it easier to eat balanced meals.

2. Store food safely.

Keep your meals fresh by using airtight, durable containers. Label each container with the date and the dish name. This helps you keep track of what you made and when.

3. Enjoy the results.

In just a few steps, you can prepare multiple meals that save time, money, and energy throughout the week.

Cheers to having more control over your health, fewer last-minute decisions, and a refrigerator full of ready-to-eat meals.
