Go on Amazon and get yourself a kitchenboss brand of vacuum sealing machine, and get a couple of generic rolls of vacuum bags.

You can make a fortnights worth of food and seal them and freeze them super easy and just grab a few and throw them in your food bag as you roll out the door.

Excellent idea, I will have to try. I am assuming these bags are safe to microwave?

I realize flying is a dream for many including me but I’ve burned through $8k in savings to supplement my pay. If you live in base you can pick up OT and make the situation a lot better otherwise....
