Freezer Friendly Meals for Crazy Nights!

How many times do we say to ourselves, “wouldn’t it be great to pull a nutritious meal out of the freezer to heat and eat in half an hour?”

It’s easier than you think! The best meals for freezing are stews, mince recipes, soups, casseroles, slow cooked and pies. It involves a little more planning initially, but then it’s just a case of doubling your usual recipe and popping one lot in the freezer. And BANG, it’s ready and waiting for those crazy nights where you need a meal fast!

Here’s a few ideas for easy-freeze meals using various cuts:

  • Minces – homemade burger patties, beef lasagne, bolognaise sauce, moussaka, meatballs, cooked mince ready for nachos, pasta bake.
  • Pies – chicken, beef, mince, lamb, shepherd’s pie.
  • Casseroles – beef ragu; casseroles using cross-cut blade, blade steak, chicken; beef cheeks (slow-cooked).
  • Slow Cooked – pulled pork shoulder,  slow cooked beef brisket.
  • Curries – chicken, lamb, beef.
  • Soups – vegetable soups and broths.
