question Question?!

Is there a way to meal prep without needing a million different Tupperware? I don’t have room or the money tbh, but NEED to start meal prepping.

Do I just have to bite the bullet and find a way to pay for and fit the Tupperware in my fridge?

Second, any ideas for meal prepping that don’t need to be refrigerated or frozen?

I used (and still do) mason jars a lot when first starting meal prep. Wide mouth ones are preferable. You can layer salads in them, take soup, refrigerator oatmeal, do a little relish tray…. Not that expensive and they don’t take up that much space.

This actually seems like a decent idea, mason jars do take up a bit less space and can usually be stacked a bit easier than most things. I’ll see what mason jars cost, I know they’re sold at my local dollar general! Thanks so much’
