Why Your Freezer Is Your Best Weight-Loss Tool

The next time you bake an enormous spinach lasagna, gluten-free pasta bake, kale casserole, or big batch of bean soup, instead of storing leftovers in the fridge, where they often go bad, save them in the freezer. Divvy up appropriate portion sizes into reusable containers, so the next time you need a quick, healthy meal, it's ready to go.

If you remember in the morning, you can transfer the containers to the fridge and allow them to thaw all day, or if they're in glass containers, just pop them in the microwave. It sure beats ordering high-calorie takeout!
