Tip: Storing meat

Okay! Now the pup and I cook almost every day, but with our working schedules, we can't afford to do what our mom's did - buy meat and veggies daily. So we stock up, especially on meat. 

We've pretty much worked out the amount/weight of meat that we normally eat for one meal so what I've done is to re-pack all the meats into portions for each meal.

Earlier I used cling wrap to individually wrap up the pieces of meat but recently I've discovered snack sized zip lock bags!!! OMG so much fun. So much easier. So much cleaner!

This is my bacon. For me, the more fat and the chunkier it is, the more I love it.

The pup on the other hand is a lean meat lover. So he gets back bacon instead.

See? Nice and neat, no? And at least I won't have to worry about ruining the rest of the meats when I try to defrost it.

These are the ones I use. I actually bought them by mistake, I wanted a slightly larger one but hey, sometimes things just work out after all, no?

All my other meats in snack sized zip lock bags in the freezer :)

Until next time!
