There are a few things in life that I cannot live without. One of them would be my ever-growing collection of Snapware food storage containers (both plastic and glass). I know I am not the only one who has an obsession with these life/food savers. They have an airtight lid so I don’t ever have to worry about spillage. I use Snapware containers for my lunch everyday and to store all my ingredients or leftovers. It has helped me immensely to be more organized in my kitchen.

With the daily stress of my overly busy life, anything that will help save time is greatly appreciated….
