how long can meal prep chicken last in the fridge? Katie explained that prepared foods - such as cooked poultry and meats, salads, and soups and stews - should last in the refrigerator for three to four days.

Your refrigerator temperature should be 40F or below and your freezer should be at least 0F or below. If you are preparing several hot meals, you should allow the meals to cool down (nearly to room temperature) and then store them in the refrigerator or freezer within 1-2 hours of preparing.
