I am wanting to prepare foods in advance as I think this will help me with my weight lose.

I would like to know how long certain foods will stay good for in the fridge:

Chicken
Steak
Pork Chops
Cooked Rice
Fried Peppers and Mushrooms
Steamed Veggies
Potatoes(white and sweet)
Cooked Beans

Thanks

    Most cooked food should be be fine for 4-5 days in the refrigerator... longer in the freezer.

    Hi

    Everything 3-4 days will last longer but in trade these would be dates used except following

    Cooked rice 1-2 day better to cook and freeze this, microwave from frozen

    Peppers and mushrooms also ok from frozen

    Check the fridge thermometer to see that the temperature is 40 degrees Fahrenheit or a little lower.
    Cooked meat will usually last three to four days.
