10 Crockpot Freezer Meals

I had a Friday off a couple weeks ago, so mom & I decided to take on making freezer meals. We found this collection from Grace and Good Eats on Pinterest. 10 meals for under $100? Let's do it!

So we headed to get our groceries, split the grocery list provided at the bottom of the recipe list - here. (I also added the grocery list at the bottom of this post with some measurements on items that did have any)

Then it was back to my house. Folding table covered in groceries, the little sis writing instructions on the ziploc bags and mom & I filling them up all over the counter tops & island.

So in 3 hours we had made this list 3 times. That's 30 meals, 3 hours & under $300!





Seriously, walking into my house after a long day at work & smelling the crockpot with these healthy meals is a great feeling!
