Tips for freezing food?

Thanks for the information. A few things I’ll have to think about and maybe do a little experimenting. H has decreed no plastics for food storage, hence the Pyrex. The plan is to freeze the chili in the Pyrex, take it out in the morning and leave it in the fridge at work. I am hoping that by lunchtime it will be thawed enough to transfer to a mug to microwave.

Freezer burn might be a problem because I have 2-cup Pyrex containers and was planning to fill them only 3/4 full. Could I maybe put a piece of wax paper over the chili after I put it in the container (and before putting the lid on)?
