Hi Rita,

Like you, I’ve switched over to glass square and rectangular storage containers. TAke up less space in the fridge. And I’m pretty good at freezing veggies and fruit getting past prime. Good for smoothies and soups!

Thanks for your insight! I love the crowd-sourcing of this community.

Storage- I use glass containers with clip on lids. They come in square and rectangular sizes. Washable and can be sterilized if necessary. Definitely reusable. Re: raw fruit or vegetables gone ripe but too much to eat now -I slice and freeze- ready to use as much or as little as I need. Raw meat or fish or cooked food I freeze in single portions.

Hi, Lynn,
Since I live alone and love meatloaf, I always have leftovers. Although I love cold meatloaf sandwiches, there are only so many you can eat in a weak. One of my tricks is to cut up some of the meatloaf into cubes and freeze. I then use them the next time I’m hungry for spaghetti and “meatballs.” It’s not leftovers – it’s a whole new meal!
