When I was caring for my mom, Gram, and dad I spent countless hours cooking. Food is such an important part of our lives, and that doesn’t change when you age! I love the idea of creating make ahead mason jar meals for seniors because they are so easy to prepare, transport and make healthy.

If your senior has arthritis, opening Tupperware and containers can be difficult. With these jars, you can still keep food safely packaged with the initial hard twist already done for them. If you’re making a ton, I suggest labeling food, especially items that require cooking instructions.
