26 Freezer Meals Plus 3 Batches of Cookies, 2 Types of Muffins and 3 Desserts in 7 Hours

Posted by admin on

Last week while The Girl was here we made a bunch of freezer meals so she could stash away a bunch of homemade meals in her freezer for nights when she was short on time, or didn’t feel like cooking this fall. 

And while I’ve been whipping up freezer meals in the kitchen for years now, this was her first time putting them together and she had so much fun, she wants to do it again.

We’ve already made plans to get together again at the end of the month and make another batch of freezer meals. I think her plan is to basically take the next two months off from thinking about what’s for dinner {and lunch the next day!}. 

This kid! She’s a smart one. 🙂 

Here’s a list of all the meals {and treats} I helped her make.

Freezer Meal Soups

I like the Stack Man brand of deli containers for freezing soups as they are durable and reusable. 

Freezer Meal Breakfast Muffins

Frozen Cookie Dough

Frozen Desserts

How to Freeze Fruit Pies {coming soon}

While it was a lot of work, we managed to put everything together in just under 7 hours. SEVEN HOURS!!! If you can print out a few recipes and carve out a half a day to work in the kitchen, it ends up being such a money saver in the long run and makes life so much easier on those nights you just don’t feel like making something from scratch. 

We had fun, and I think after getting another freezer meal session under her belt, she’ll be ready to do this on her own. 

Prioritizing your time, it takes a little effort, but the payoff can be huge. 

How about you? Are you a fan of freezer meals? I think I might have to make a few for myself this weekend. 😉

Have a great day everyone,
