Is meal prep on your list of things to do in 2020? Then you definitely need some decent glass meal prep containers in your collection.
And I have done the research and testing to bring you the best glass meal prep containers to help you with your goal.
Why Choose Glass Meal Prep Containers
Why should you choose glass over other materials though? There are a few reasons why I choose to use glass containers:
- Food is fresher when stored in glass containers. With plastic containers, there is the possibility of tastes and smells being absorbed.
- Because glass containers are BPA free and completely free from other chemicals.
- Glass is a much more sustainable choice – it lasts much longer than other materials.

I really like using glass food containers, and find them much cleaner to use than plastic. Meal prepping is a great way of planning in advance, particularly for taking to work. I find food planning means less food waste and better eating habits.
Meal prep changed my life when our third was born, these glass containers look like a great addition to my kitchen! Adding them to the Amazon wishlist!

This is so helpful. I’m actively working on becoming plastic free, especially in the kitchen so this is a great post to get my started.
Oh snap. I am just int he market for containers just like these ones. This post is amazing sauce for me right now.
I love a good bit of storage and these sound perfect for all that food prep. I love that they are glass as well – bound to last well!
Now this is what I am talking about. I love my food preparation to be organised and have been looking for storage solutions xx
We are slowing phasing out our plastic pots as they begin to break. Replacing them with glass ones as we have found that food stays fresher for longer.
This is such a useful post! I need to do more food prep this year and I’m slowly replacing the horrible plastic ones we have already. I will definitely look at your suggestions.
