Someone got here by searching for the above, so I thought I’d do a post on it..
There would be a lot of different ways, here is how I do it – in fact you are lucky, because I had not yet done this for next week, so there are even photos. :)
When it first arrives, if it has been in the esky for a while what I want to do is get it in the fridge quick. Seeing as mine arrives at 7am and I don’t usually rise until 11 (the perils of shift work) it has been in there for 5 hours. Everything is still cold, the frozen stuff is still frozen. So I put it in the fridge/freezer and tend to leave it until I get time to sort it. So here is how it looks before I organise it.
The freezer stuff –
The freezer stuff is usually sorted into breakfast and lunch when you get it. The dinners are usually together in the one bag. I’ll usually just take out the first day items and each day I’ll take out the next day.
The fridge stuff –
This is all the breakfasts and lunches – I like to sort the fridge stuff into days 2, 3, 4 into one bag, and 5, 6. 7 into the other bag. Day 1 just goes by itself into the fridge next to the bags.
And there you go, all set.
Each day, before going to bed, I’ll pull out the next days food – especially if I am working.

Our freezer has drawers – the wife and I intend lunch and dinner each for 5 days each week and would ask what space would be needed
