How long do meal prep recipes stay fresh in the refrigerator?
Most meal prep recipes stay fresh for 3-5 days when stored properly in airtight containers in the refrigerator. Always check for signs of spoilage before consuming.
What are the best containers for meal prepping?
Glass containers with airtight lids are ideal for meal prep as they're microwave-safe, don't retain odors, and help keep food fresh longer. Look for compartmentalized containers to keep different components separate.
