As someone diagnosed with OCD, this concept sounds amazing and is something I'll definitely try! (I just hope my brain goes along with it 😅)

Great tips! Pre portioned fruit and veggies changed the way I eat. I used to prep everything we ate. But once my health took a hit, I stopped because I was just too exhausted. I finally gave in and now I can meet my nutrional goals and reduced our food waste exponentially!
