Hello and welcome! So glad you stopped by!
Today I am addressing the never-ending task of getting dinner on the table. Why must my family eat EVERY. SINGLE. DAY?? 🙂 Do you feel the same way? I mean, it never stops! I have a goal to make dinner at LEAST 5 nights a week. That is not going to happen unless I really plan ahead. One method I am wanting to try is to make some freezer meals to have ready to go when I’m in a pinch. If you’re making dinner anyway, why not make a double batch and freeze half of it? Then you can pull it out and have it a couple of weeks later! It’s genius but as we all know some dishes freeze better than others. So today I’ve rounded up over 20 delicious recipes that have been tested and make great freezer meals! Take a look and click on the link below each image to take you to the full recipe!

Thanks for sharing our baked spaghetti recipe. It’s delicious and easy.
That is definitely one I want to try soon! Thanks for letting me share!
I am so bad at freezer meals. I always forget what is in my freezer haha! But that chicken pot pie sounds like a good idea — my family LOVES chicken pot pie, so I make it a lot.
Ive made the chicken pot pie twice and it is very very good!
Thanks so much for including my chicken pot pie recipe in this roundup! I see in the comments that you’ve tried it and liked it–glad to hear it! Enjoy!
Anyone have a grocery list of all the ingredients?
How long can you freeze these for? I’m pregnant and want to make them for when we first get home from the hospital… but I also want to make them early enough I can still physically do it lol
I think it depends on the meal but I’ve heard you can keep things in the freezer anywhere from 3 months to a year. And I would even say most things would still be good at 6 months. Good luck with your pregnancy! You’re awesome to be so on top of meal planning!
I’m a soon to be new mom and me and my fiance are pretty new to this even though I have had some experience with my mom and my baby sister, how can I make freezer meals easy and simple for my fiance who works eight hours a day all week that he will enjoy after our baby arrives in June?
How many people does 1meal make
I printed off almost ALL of these! Thank you so much! I think we are related. ; )
I am a retired teacher but am almost as busy now as I was when I was teaching! I totally relied on freezer meals the last several years I taught and really need to stock up again. My life is sooooooo busy still. : ) Thanks for the inspiration. Now, to make the grocery list and get busy. Have a blessed day!
