11.Lunch in a Jar
You can pre-make five at once and have lunch all week. Put nuts, grains, protein, and dressing at the bottom of an 8-ounce jar, with veggies and greens on top. Or make a “wrap-less” burrito with beans, rice, and veggies. Another idea: portion out single-serve smoothie ingredients that are ready to throw in the blender.
12.Stay Organized
Once you have things prepped and packed, don’t lose it all in the back of your fridge or freezer. Label each container with the contents and the date. Keep the stuff that’s been there longer near the front so you use it first. Put food that goes bad fastest, like herbs and chopped fruit, at eye level so you don’t forget about them.
