Batch cooking, or prepping food for the freezer, can be both an exciting task and a daunting one.

A few quick tips to consider:

1. Clean and organize your freezer to make sure you have room for your prepped meals
2. Make a plan - find recipes to utilize items you have on hand (like the Good Food Box!) and perhaps items that have gotten lost in your pantry
3. Make sure you have proper food storage containers - glass, plastic, freezer bags, whatever it is, make sure they seal properly
4. Double a recipe and freeze in useable portion sizes
5. If you don't have time to make a full recipe, consider breaking the task into multiple days. example: Cut up the veggies (use a food processor for onions!) ahead of time or cook your meat when you first purchase it and then combine all the prepared pieces into your menu
6. Cool the food fully before freezing 
7. Label & freeze
8. Thank your former self for thinking ahead

If storing produce to last is not your forte, fear not!
