Notes

Feel free to mix and match vegetables based on your preference or seasonal availability. To avoid soggy meals, ensure the cooked beef and vegetables are cooled completely before sealing in containers. Consider varying the seasoning each week (e.g., teriyaki, barbecue, tacos) to keep the meal exciting. Properly stored, these meals will last in the fridge for 4 days or can be frozen for up to three months. Label containers with the date cooked for tracking freshness.
