Plan your meals: Create a menu for 3–4 days. Shorter preps are better, but cooked tomatoes and boiled veggies can last longer in the fridge.

Stock up before you prep: Always have essentials like rice, aata, pasta, oil, onions, tomatoes, potatoes, garlic, ginger, and frozen meats or veggies ready to go.

Get cooking with multitasking: Chop veggies, boil water for pasta or rice, and cook multiple dishes simultaneously to save time and energy in the kitchen.

What to make: Boost immunity with probiotic-rich foods like idlis. Prep dosa batter, cook seasonal greens, and store blanched tomatoes for versatile use.

Store it right: Use Pyrex or silicone containers. Keep the fridge at 40°F (5°C) and the freezer at 0°F (-18°C) for optimal freshness.

Extra storage tip: Cool cooked food before refrigerating. Spread food in shallow containers for faster cooling and refrigerate within two hours of cooking.
