Do you prepare fresh foods everyday for lunch and dinner or prepare in advance say on a holiday or when you have free time and put them in the freezer and heat them when required?
I prepare fresh foods everyday for lunch and dinner. It is not that I do not want to cook earlier but I have got used to cook fresh foods daily. Only when I have something very important to do for the next day, I sometimes cook the previous day and store them in the refrigerator.

I like to prepare fresh foods every day but I use all the leftovers I have. Sometimes I freeze them, sometimes I put them in the fridge, depending on what they are and when will I use them.
I donĀ“t like to eat the same thing two days in a row so I usually change the leftovers into something else.
When I have visitors (which is often) I prepare beforehand part of the food (some appetizers or part of the dessert if it can be done). I also leave some half prepared food in the fridge so that I can just take it out and put it in the oven the next day.
Happy posting!

If I am preparing my lunch box to work, I'll usually prepare the food the night before, then store it in the fridge. The next day, I just bring it to work and reheat it using the microwave. It's just because I do not want to wake up in the early morning to cook. But if my husband is the one who is preparing for the lunch box, he will usually wake up in the early morning and cook. He prefers to have fresh cooked meal.

As far as possible we are using fresh fruits and vegetables at our home. We are very strict on this.

If i have more time to spend into cooking my meals, i prefer to cook fresh foods for my every meals. I will only cook frozen foods only when i don't have much time cooking. Since cooking fresh foods needs a lot of preparation to be done, like cleaning and cutting into our preferred sizes, before cooking them. Sometimes, i do cook more foods for the next day, where i just need to store them in the refrigerator and re-heated them the next day, if i am busy and don't have the time to cook, the next day. But, if you asked me to choose, of course i prefer to eat fresh foods more than frozen foods, as it's more healthy to our body.

I'm glad that my mom loves cooking and she is a great cook. She always prepares fresh foods every lunch and dinner. Me? I don't know how things will be. If I had time, I would love to prepare fresh foods for my family everyday, it depends
