The Freeze Protocol

1

Flash Freeze First

Layout burritos or muffins on a tray for 2 hours before bagging. This prevents the "ice block" effect and allows for single-serving removal.

2

Dual Labeling System

Use masking tape for: 1. Item Name, 2. Preparation Date, and 3. Reheat instructions (e.g., "1 min high, flip, 1 min").

3

Vertical Inventory

Store freezer bags vertically like a file folder system. Use "First In, First Out" (FIFO) to ensure nutrients stay fresh.
