Freezer Crockpot Meals

As I began my Christmas vacation this year, I decided it was time to find an easier way to prep meals for when we go back to school so I went on the hunt for some yummy sounding meals and found many referenced crockpot ready freezer meals.  Prepping everything, placing in a freezer bag and freezing for ease of use!  YES!  I found the answer to helping make my life easy!

I picked out a handful of recipes, many of which I had ingredients on hand for, and proceeded to create and fill my freezer!  I found chicken breast for $1.99 a pound at my local Shurfine store along with a large bag of marked down hamburger (90%).  Then at my local Shaw's I found a pork marked down and snagged that for a couple of recipes too!

My chosen list:

• Crock Pot Apple BBQ Pork Tenderloin Recipe located here 

• Gluten Free Dairy Free Santa Fe Chicken Recipe Located Here

• BBQ Cranberry Chicken Recipe Located Here

• Hawaiian Chicken Recipe Located Here

• Salsa Chicken Tacos Recipe Located Here

HINT:  Write on the zipper bag before filling with all directions you need to complete the recipe!

AND I made a large batch of meatballs (100+) that are all packaged and frozen for quick pullout.  

Another great resource I found was a series of posts at MoneySavingMom.com called 4 Weeks to Fill your Freezer - week 1 is located here. She has recipes for breakfast, lunch, dinner, desserts and more!  

Good Luck and I'll keep sharing!
