Prepping the weeks meals all in one day 26 January 2012 14:43 (permalink)

Gonna start cooking my meals for work all on a monday afternoon instead of every evening, will be doing 4 nights worth (mon-thurs).
Just wondered how long chicken & mince are ok for when cooked and put in the fridge in an airtight container? If i cook them monday will they still be ok at midnight thursday or shall i freeze?

As for storing the meals for long periods make it stays in the fridge plus if possible make sure you have air tight containers
