20 EASY FREEZER MEALS | Cheap & Tasty FAIL-PROOF Freezer Meal Planning Ideas | Julia Pacheco

Not only are these easy freezer meals but would also make them easy to gift to a friend or family in need!

Im gonna go on a limb here and say making that many mashed potatoes and say it may not be "easier" but finance wise... making a 10 pound bag of potatos at once is MUCH cheaper...if anyone has a kitchenaid mixer i encourage you to make them...use lots of butter and sour cream to keep them fresh and minumize any chance of it turning brown on you...

I was today days old when I learned how to get tomato paste out of the can!! Thanks, Julia! That gave me a "why didn't I think of that?" moment!

I would say to add the date to cooking instructions label. “Best by +3 months”

She just seems like one of the sweetest people ever. Am I right people??

The Dollar Tree has aluminum pans with lids that crimp down that are sort of a coated cardboard. I use those, write directly on the lid and then they are easy to stack. Great recipes as always. I lone making freezer meals and that tomato paste trick is genius!

I made all of these and tried them out on my family. They were easy to make and tasted delicious. The seasoning was perfect. The only issue I came across was that with the wild chicken and rice, I kept having too much liquid. However a good fix for that was adding a little instant white rice to it and it was still delicious. Also, we used the fiesta chicken casserole as filling for tacos and burritos. It was awesome. We brought two of the freezer meals with us in a cooler to our beach cottage over vacation and it was so nice to have a great meal only an hour after we checked in with no prep mess. Thank you so much for sharing these. My kids always love your recipes and they are hard to please.

Not going to lie, my husband and I love watching your videos and it’s helped our household tremendously. We do plan on doing these freezer ready prep meals. Please add more of these! My sister is pregnant and I’d like to help her out.

We LOVE bob evans mashed potatoes! Julia these are going to absolutely SAVE me! I am having our second baby in the beginning of July and I plan on making a bunch of meals for us at least for the first few weeks. We have a toddler that will need to eat, a nursing mommy, and I cook for my husband everyday for work so I need to think about him too. I really think this is going to be my savior!❤❤ Thank you for sharing this video 🙏🏼🥹

Great recipe ideas! I want to try all of them. My mom is 82 years old and needs meals cooked for her. I work full time, so this will be very helpful to prepare her meals as well as my husband and two sons. Thank you!!!

I Re-fOUND YOUR VIDEO! Lol, I made this for my friend who had a baby back in August and I was looking for this again today for a friend who had a baby this week. This recipe is so good! I just added a cup of green Chile to this quantity because we are New Mexicans and its delicious! Thank you!

This is exactly what I have been looking for due with my first baby in a few weeks, and would like to have some easy meals in the beginning. Simple meals with everyday ingredients. Thank you Julia

Thank you, Julia, for all your amazing meals! You are talented and gifted and such a blessing to so many viewers on YouTube! God has truly blessed you in so many ways! I pray you and your family prosper and walk in God's best purpose for your future! 😇

Hi, Julia and Fam. Ain't no-body have a reason to be hungry & not-know what to make for dinner watching your channel. Another great ep.✌️Be Well.

You must have one hell of a freezer. All these recipes look great, we'll give them a try. Thanks!

One thing that helps me with adding broth/stock to freezer meals is to freeze the broth in ice cube trays (because I make my own broth anytime I have meals with bones in them, I like to freeze the broth). One ice cube tray holds about a cup of liquid, so it works out really easily, and you can pop the cubes into your bags already frozen, and it's easy to pour into your crock pots or pans or whatever.

My cheap and easy way to make mashed potatoes (like for shepherds pie) is with frozen hash browns (southern). Dump them in a casserole dish with water, half and half and butter for about 2 hours and they come out soft enough that they mash with a spoon when stirred. So easy and taste like fresh.

So cute with your daughter peeking around the corner. Love these recipes because they are easy using every day ingredients.

These not only look easy to put together but DELICIOUS! Thanks Julia!

Loved this particular video because not only did you show the prep but also how to cook it. I'm a visual learner, so that helps. Thanks.
