Kickstart healthy eating with this simple fridge makeover

The key to managing leftovers is to be honest with yourself, says Desiree Nielsen, a Vancouver-based dietitian. “Will you get to leftover food before it spoils?

Keep a sheet on the door of your fridge with a list of the ready-to-heat meals inside — and the dates you’ll need to use them by.
