We all know the freezer is a very useful kitchen appliance when it comes to making quick meals on a weeknight, but did you know it can be used to store more than just oven chips and bumper bags of garden peas? Many everyday ingredients can be kept fresher for longer in the freezer, even ones you never knew you could freeze.

We’ve put together a comprehensive beginner’s guide to weekly meal prep, from why you should start doing it to exciting ideas of what to put in your lunch box.

While we're all for experimenting with exciting new flavours and recipes here at FoodSaver, we believe there are certain foods that everyone should always have in their kitchen — so you can rustle up healthy family favourites that don't cost the earth.
