Beef Freezer Meal Recipes

January 24, 2017   |   Leave a Comment

Who loves making freezer meals?  Being able to cook or prep for about an hour one day and have meals for the week or month that are ready to thaw out and dump into the slow cooker.  It doesn’t get much easier than that!

I’ve found that using my FoodSaver® Food Preservation System to vacuum seal my bags makes several meals fit into a small area of my freezer.  Vacuum sealing helps to marinate the ingredients together, plus, I don’t have to worry about freezer burn!

Check out these easy beef freezer meal ideas below!

Beef Freezer Meal Recipes

I’ve really gotten into making freezer meals, they just make getting dinner on the table so much easier.  Especially on busy days when I know I’m not going to have time to spent long in the kitchen, I can pull one of the meals out, thaw and dump it in the slow cooker and dinner will be ready when I get home that evening.

Spending just an hour each month prepping meals is such a time saver and worth the effort.  Plus, with the FoodSaver® Food Preservation System keeps my meals from getting any type of freezer burn.  It’s a huge help!

Combine all ingredients (except beef broth) in a FoodSaver® bag, adding the beef to the bag last so it’s the first ingredient poured into the crockpot.

Add to crockpot with beef broth and cook on “low” setting for 8 hours or until carrots are soft.
