21 Delicious Freezer Meals

21 delicious freezer meals to make for your busy family. Some you cook ahead and freeze and others you prep and freeze to cook later.
Freezer meals - perfect for busy families!

“Hey, Mom, what’s for dinner?”  It’s a question that all moms know, and many dread, but a great freezer meal can save the day in the middle of a busy week!  Some of these recipes are cooked completely and then frozen for a rainy day, and some are mixed together and placed aside for baking later, but all of them look mouth-wateringly delicious!

Today I am sharing 21 delicious freezer meals that will be dividing them into two categories.  The first category is recipes to make ahead in full and freeze some (or all) of the meal.  (I usually double recipes like this so that we can have dinner that evening and another evening down the road.)  The second category is recipes that you should prep the ingredients but not COOK until later.  For instance, on the Shredded Barbecue Chicken Sandwich Recipe linked up below, I would mix up the sauce and put the raw meat and sauce together in a giant Ziploc bag or Tupperware and freeze it that way.  A day or two days prior to cooking it I would simply pull out the bag, allow it to thaw, and dump it all in the crockpot together on the morning we planned to eat it.  Obviously, you should read the recipes to see if the recipe creator has specific freezing tips.
