Recently, my sister-in-law made two freezer meals for me and my husband. We just ate the last one last night. One recipe was called “Mom’s Hamburger Helper” and the other “Chicken Pot Pie”. Both were delicious and very convenient when I got home late from work and was too tired to cook. I loved how they were in freezer bags and didn’t take up too much room in my freezer. My sister-in-law recently gave birth to a little girl and she said freezer meals were the best invention during the first few months. So since I am pregnant, I’ve decided that freezer meals may be a good investment in my future. I have two cookbooks for freezer meals called “Don’t Panic-Dinner’s in the Freezer”. On my days off, I plan to double a recipe and freeze half of it. I have a few recipes picked out but I was wondering if any of you have any true, delicious freezer meal recipes. If so email me at dpelster@kwwl.com or just post them on the blog for everyone to see. I would love to see more recipes and especially ones that you have tried! Can’t wait to see them!

This is the link to a make-one, freeze-one recipe my family enjoys. I don’t think my three young boys even know they are eating spinach!
Found this website on Pinterest shortly after I read your blog.

I gave birth to a baby girl 2 months ago and I can’t even describe how wonderful it was to have meals ready in the freezer. I prepared a lot of meals the last month I was pregnant and this was way more helpful than I ever imagined! The best gift for new parents are frozen meals and help with housework! I now know what to give expectant parents as gifts when their little ones arrive! Check out food.com for OAMC (once a month cooking) ideas and pinterest too. Good luck and I hope you have an extra freezer to store all the meals you make!
Thanks for all these! I plan to give some a try this week or next week.
Eve,
I made the Chicken Club Casserole last night. It was delicious and my husband loved it! So excited to have a freezer meal in the freezer. Thanks for sharing!!
I’m reading this blog post a little late so hopefully this comment gets to you in time
Look up Rachel Ray’s dump chicken recipes
She gives like 10 different recipes for just putting uncooked chicken breasts (or I guess other parts too?) in a ziplock bag and then different flavors.
You just dump the frozen bag in crock pot in morning. Then serve with rice or noodles. Super easy to create a bunch in one sitting and super easy to cook when you don’t feel like getting off the couch.
