Meal prep has emerged as a powerful tool in our fight against food waste. Based on our decade-long experience in the meal planning industry, we have seen firsthand how strategic meal prep can lead to significant reductions in food waste.
By planning and preparing meals in advance, we can ensure that ingredients are used efficiently, reducing the likelihood of food spoiling before it can be consumed. This not only helps in saving money but also contributes to a more sustainable environment.
Pro Tip:
Batch cooking is your best friend. Prepare large quantities of meals and freeze portions for later use. This not only saves time but also ensures that you always have a meal ready, reducing the temptation to waste food.
Always label and date your prepped meals. This helps in keeping track of their freshness and ensures you consume them before they spoil.
