My wife and I are big fans of freezer meals- life gets crazy, so it’s nice to prep meals on a day when you have time so that on busy days, you can still eat a healthy homemade meal.
Below are 20 of my favorite meals to prepare ahead of time. Besides saving you time and money, they are also healthy. Most of these recipes are from My Recipe Magic, which is an online recipe sharing community.

Breakfast:
Dinner:
(Just throw all the ingredients in a resealable plastic bag instead of your crock pot and place in the freezer- including the raw chicken. When ready to use, thaw in the fridge for 24 hours, then dump ingredients into your slow cooker)
Just throw all the ingredients in a resealable plastic bag- even the cornstarch, onion, pineapple, and green peppers- and place in the freezer. When ready to use, thaw in the fridge for 24 hours then trump the ingredients in your slow cooker. The pineapple and peppers may be a little mushy from cooking in the slow cooker all day, so if you wanted to, you could add them at the end of cooking instead of putting them in the freezer.
(You can freeze this before or after cooking- both ways work well!)
(Freeze after cooking- just let it cool and place in a freezer-safe container or bag. When ready to eat, just remove from freezer and reheat.)

(Cook all the chicken and other ingredients, then freeze and pull them out and assemble enchiladas for a quick meal!)

Looking for healthy freezer friendly recipes and just when I thought I had found some good ones, none of the links under the recipes worked for me. Anyone else having trouble opening them?
Jared says
Monica – I am so sorry none of these were working! The links got lost with some recent programming changes I made to the site. Sorry about that! I’ve got them all fixed and they should all be working now; click on either the picture or the link! Thanks for bringing that to my attention! Have a great day!

Every recipe I try and click goes to a weird page that looks like a programming page. Can you tell me where I can actually find the recipes?
