I love the articles on food/meal prep - for instance the article on Staci where she talks about prepping several pounds of chicken on Sundays. The problem I have is that none of these articles seem to mention the specifics on keeping the food fresh! How long does cooked chicken last? Do you put it all in the fridge, or do you freeze some? What about mason jar salads, steak, cooked vegetables? www.stilltasty.com says that cooked chicken breast only lasts 3-4 days in the fridge. I know the go-to advice about food is to smell it, but I can't smell so... anything more concrete would be helpful. So that's my question! How do you prep meals for the week and keep them fresh?
