A question for meal preppers.
Will these foods keep for 3 days in the fridge:
Cooked chicken
Cooked pork
Cooked hamburger
Cooked steak
Cooked ground turkey

Brown rice
Potatoes

All cooked:
Brocolli
Carrots
Cauliflower
Peppers
Onions
Mushrooms
Garlic

I would like to meal prep for 3 days at a time.
Thanks

    Great plan. Get yourself a meat thermometer and achieve minimum temps for your cooked meat.

    How about baked tofu as a sixth alternative?

    Yes, those will all keep for a few days. I do what was mentioned above - I usually double or triple my favorite recipes, cook up a storm one day a week, and freeze portions for my lunches. I also prep my breakfasts and snacks for Mon-Fri. It makes the weekdays so much easier, and I don't cheat because I have everything ready. :)

    Yes, you can make all five days and freeze half of it if it freezes well, if not cook 3, and then cook again on like wednesday night or something.
