    Can't hurt to freeze them if you're worried...

    I would try not to keep rice in the fridge longer than three days. Also, try to defrost in the fridge overnight, don't heat to defrost unless you're literally eating it straight afterwards.

    Rice is fine in the frig for a week. Not sure about green beans - try it and see.

    What are you doing for protein and fat?

    Rice is fine in just a sealed container. I have one of those vacuum sealers for vegetables and it keeps them fresh for a week easily.
