Quick freezer recipes are handy for busy weeknights. Having them stored in the freezer helps stay on a diet and eating less take out. I did this cooking for many years when my kids were younger. My favorite freezer meal cookbook was Once-a-Month Cooking by Mimi Wilson and Mary Beth Lagerborg
. Click on the link, and you can buy it on Amazon (affiliate). It helped me save money, time and keep my kids and me on a healthier diet. I found that soups and chili recipes work great in the freezer. Other freezer meal favorites are marinated meat dishes. While they defrost, they are marinating the meat. What a great idea, it's doing two tasks at once. Awesome! Over the last three years, I shared my weeknight recipes to help moms and dads eat better and keep their kids and themselves more organized. This post is my collection of freezer meals that will help you start. I hope that you try at least a few of these recipes and that it helps you and your family. Enjoy.

This recipe really is perfect for the freezer. Make a double batch and freeze half. It's so yummy. It does take some time to set up and cook.

Another recipe I redid recently is the zucchini white chili one below.
