Here are nine freezer meals that don’t require any cooking ahead of time. That’s right. NO COOKING. Simply combine the meats, vegetables, sauces and spices, and freeze!
This blog post was inspired by one of my best friends, Heather. We were at a “girls’ night” last week and she mentioned that she loved my 15-Minute Freezer Recipes Cookbook from my cookbook bundle because it focused on 10 “no-cook” freezer meals and provided a grocery list. She said that she spent two hours making almost all of them and it was so easy to stock her freezer.
That got me thinking about which “no-cook” freezer meals I would make if I had a couple of hours to myself. (By “no-cook” freezer recipes, I mean recipes that don’t require any cooking ahead of time – simply combine the ingredients and freeze.)
I settled on a list of nine recipes that freeze great. I picked a mix of oven and slow cooker recipes with different flavors so we could even eat from the freezer every night if we want. Here they are, in case you want to try them too…
Nine Freezer Meals that Don’t Require Any Cooking Ahead of Time
- Brown Sugar Meatloaf
- Bean and Cheese Burritos
- Homemade Hot Pockets
- Slow Cooker Beef Roast and Carrots
- Slow Cooker Ginger-Peach Chicken
- Slow Cooker Chicken Curry
- Slow Cooker Chicken Fajitas
- Slow Cooker Garden Veggie Soup with Ground Beef
- Lasagna with Fresh Spinach
Actually, the lasagna recipe makes two pans of lasagna, so I guess this is actually a list of TEN freezer meals.
If you want to go ahead and prep all of them at once, I made printer-friendly versions of the recipes and a complete grocery list:

I am confused….Nine freezer meals that don’t require any cooking ahead time……” yet you give instructions on “how to cook it all………” isn’t this cooking ahead of time.? need to know what you are claiming and then………….more
There’s no cooking required before freezing – simply combine the ingredients and freeze. The meals cook for the first time after being frozen so they don’t taste like leftovers at all.
For the carrots and other fresh vegetables, do you blanche them first before you put them into freezer meals?
No I do not.
How many ppl does each meal feed??
