Categorize
Dividing the content of your fridge is going to be key in organizing it, separate everything into specific types and give them their own space, here’s a way that might work for you from top to bottom:
- Leftover / Ready to eat (like yogurt)
- Vegetables and fruits
- Meat and Fish
- Sauces, juice
You can look at your fridge manual to see an indication of where to put certain food, but this layout can work for most fridges, and use the compartment to separate it.
