Easy Freezer Meal Ideas

Is there such a thing as easy freezer meals? Yes! I think freezer type meals make life and meal time so much easier. You spend some time doing meal prep on one day and during the week you dump and go and dinner is ready when you need it. Freezer type meal ideas are great for the Crockpot and Instant Pot as they do most of the cooking for you.

Freezer Meal Prep

When preparing meals you can do a lot in a little amount of time. In fact you could fill the freezer with meals in under an hour. Meal prep includes, slicing, dicing, seasoning, combining and storing of your meals. In our house we generally set aside an hour or so a week to do meal prep work and to cut up snacks to make our weekdays and weeknights go easier. Saturday afternoon or Sunday work perfect to do meal prep. Find a time that works great for you
