Meal Prep Containers
If you are meal prepping, it’s important to have enough high quality meal prep containers to pack your food, reheat, wash and repeat.
These meal prep containers have lasted me years and are still going. They are amazing, especially for the low price.
You can throw them in the dishwasher and they microwave well. There are also bento like meal prep containers and glass meal prep containers if you prefer those.
Whatever you choose, just make sure you have enough to store a few meals and that they will fit neatly in your fridge.
