I Love Freezer Meals

















I am a part of a freezer meal group with some of the gals from my church. Six of us get together every other month or so to put together 10 family sized meals to put in our freezer. It is such a nice feeling to know you have something on hand for those nights you don't want to make dinner or you need to make a great meal for guests but you don't want to do it all. Plus the meals are a good testing ground for recipes. There are some recipes that have been put on the 'could do this everytime' list and others where one time was enough. Although it takes us a good 3-4 hours to put the meals together it makes for good times with friends and break time for mom.

Here are some links on freezer recipes and if a freezer group isn't your thing maybe going through an awesome company is. Check out here, here, and here.

I love that you do this. I want to get a group together--such a great idea and good preparation. Perhaps I should just do it myself--good idea when you are having a baby, or family in town or when you are sick,etc.

I SOO need to do that. I hate not having a meal planned when it's 6 pm and we are all hungry. Very good idea!

I love freezer meals! I made 22 freezer meals a while ago. I got all the recipes from savingdinners.com. Its about time to do it again and I'm so excited.

Thanks for the links to the recipes. I have been wanting to make freezer meals for awhile. I am amazed at how much you accomplish with two little girls?
