Disposable Plastic Meal Prep Boxes

These Meal Boxes from Velleora Home Decor come as a bulk pack of matching containers with lids, which is what makes them practical for portioning a large cook-up in one session.

Batch cooking runs into a container shortage rather than a food shortage. Twenty portions need twenty containers, and a household rarely owns that many matching ones - which is why half a batch ends up in mismatched tubs or gets eaten before it is frozen.

They stack squarely in a fridge or freezer and are microwave safe with the lid vented or removed. Despite the name, they are sturdy enough to be washed and reused several times before being recycled rather than thrown after one use. Check your local recycling accepts the plastic type, remove lids before microwaving, and do not use them in an oven or under a grill.
