STORAGE HACKS
– Soups & Stews: Portion into ziplock-style bags, flatten the contents, and pop in the freezer. Remove an individually portioned bag from the freezer at breakfast, defrost until lunch, heat up in a pan.
– Slice and Dice: Prep your veggies and store in Bell, Mason or Weck glass jars in fridge. So pretty.
– Fruit Bowl: Place on counter and for a mental cue to grab fruit over junk (good kitchen feng shui!)
