What happens when your whole family joins forces in the kitchen? You fill the freezer with 20 homemade recipes—and don’t have to cook for over a month. 🙌
In this video, we take you along on our freezer meal marathon where we prepped breakfasts, lunches, dinners, and snacks to stock our freezer and simplify the month ahead. It was a full weekend of cooking, laughing, organizing, and yes—real-life chaos with kids, casseroles, and a whole lot of chopping.
Whether you're looking to save time, stretch your grocery budget, or just avoid that "what's for dinner?" stress, we hope this inspires you to try your own freezer meal prep day!
