Stocking your freezer with healthy foods is by far the best way to prepare healthy meals on a daily basis, even when you’re short on time. That being said, it’s not always easy to know which are the best foods to put in there, because space is limited. Here are some healthy foods you should always have in your freezer.
Mixed Berries
Berries are rich in antioxidants and they’re pretty versatile, so make sure to store a mix of your favorite berries in the freezer. They’re a healthy and tasty topping for pancakes, smoothies, oats, or Greek yogurt.
Fish
Buy fresh fish and store it in your freezer so you’ll always have something healthy to prepare for lunch or dinner. Fish is a great source of omega-3 fatty acids and it can be stored in the freezer for up to six months.
Spinach
Don’t underestimate this healthy green veggie, because spinach is packed with antioxidants, iron, calcium, and magnesium. It’s pretty useful to have in the freezer because you can cook it for lunch in less than 15 minutes.
Bread
Bread can be kept in the freezer for up to three months, which is a pretty useful tip for reducing food waste. Defrosted bread is just as tasty and useful to have in the kitchen for preparing quick meals.
