From the digital cookbook: [10 Make-Ahead Freezer Meals](3D) [Subscribe now.](3D) Dear Home Cook, A busy weekday schedule doesn’t mean you have to skip out on good, homemade meals. You can make all ten of these weeknight delights ahead of time, and freeze them for up to three months. So grab your Ziploc freezer bags, and let’s get cooking! This cookbook includes ten recipes that you can make whenever you feel like it, put in the freezer, then serve later when you’re short on time. I do this all the time at home, so I’m really excited to show you how you can enjoy a delicious make-ahead meal every night of the week. I’ll share with you how to safely freeze and save your meals, along with plenty of tips for ways you can personalize each of these meals to suit your taste. You’ll get pointers for storing your meals without taking up a lot of freezer space, advice on how to thaw your meals ahead of time, and organization tips that will ensure nothing gets forgotten in the back of your freezer. This cookbook is perfect for anyone who loves a good meal, but doesn’t have a lot of time to cook every night. You’ll learn everything you need to enjoy more than a week of hot, nutritious meals (and desserts!) no matter how busy you are, including family favorites like Slow Cooker Chicken Fajitas, and a creamy Mac and Cheese. I’ll share my favorite Meatloaf recipe with you, and an awesome Breakfast Burrito recipe that’s better than anything you can get at the drive-thru. And you do not want to miss the Make Ahead Baked Eggnog French Toast; it’s a perfectly festive way to wake up on Christmas morning, or any winter morning, really. All you need to add is a cup of freshly brewed coffee! Your 10 Make-Ahead Freezer Meals cookbook includes full-color pictures of each dish, and it comes with a streaming recipes video that highlights five of the recipes in the digital cookbook. I’ll walk you through everything, so you can see just how easy it is to put together plenty of meals even when you don’t have a lot of time. Join the [RecipeLion Gold Club](3D) today, and in addition to these ten recipes, you also get instant access to the library of cookbooks, recipe videos, and magazine issues. [Subscribe now.](3D) You really won’t believe how easy it is to make Slow Cooker Chicken Fajitas. This one-pot meal is so simple (and tasty) that you might wonder what the point of making it ahead is. But trust me when I tell you that when I wake up with a full day ahead of me, and know that I don’t have to do any prep for dinner – just empty the bag into the slow cooker – it’s an absolute lifesaver! Before you fill the Ziploc bag, though, grab a marker and label the bag with the meal (fajitas in this case, but you can use this trick for plenty of make-ahead meals), the date you make the meal, and the “use by” date. If you’re giving the meal to someone else, you can also write the cooking instructions on the bag. Then put your chicken breasts, onion, peppers, and seasoning in the bag, and shake it up to coat your chicken with the spices. Open the bag back up and add your honey and cider vinegar, and into the freezer it goes. Thaw the fajitas in your refrigerator when you’re ready for them, and cook them in your slow cooker for about 6 hours on low and you can come home to shredded, perfect chicken full of flavor.

You’ll get the complete recipes and instructions for each of these oh-so-good dishes. In addition to the Chicken Fajitas recipe, you’ll get: - Make-Ahead Baked Eggnog French Toast—It’s the perfect way to start Christmas day, and get everyone in the holiday spirit. Use an Italian-style loaf for a thicker and spongier French toast that soaks up all the delicious eggnog flavor.  - Breakfast Burritos—Dinner isn’t the only meal you can make ahead and freeze! Bring these burritos to work or pop them in the microwave at home. We start with roasted peppers, onions, and potatoes, so you know it can only get better from there! This is way more than a basic egg burrito you’ll get at a drive-thru; it really has a lot of flavor and it’s also really healthy.  - Mac and Cheese—This is the creeeeamiest mac and cheese you will ever eat. I like to use yellow cheddar, but you can use smoked gouda, white cheddar, or almost any other cheese you like. Talk about the ultimate comfort food!  [Subscribe now.](3D) [Join Now!](3D)  And to complete your 10 Make-Ahead Freezer Meals cookbook, you’ll also get these delicious and hearty favorites: - Stuffed Peppers—Filled with rice, ground sausage, salsa verde and cheese, these peppers are a perfect lunch, brunch, or dinner. I like to use big peppers for meal-sized portions, but you could also use smaller bell peppers if you wanted these as a side dish. And if you use a mix of green, red, and yellow peppers, this makes a truly colorful presentation.  - Brown Sugar Meatloaf—This is one of my favorite meatloaf recipes. Lining the bottom of your meatloaf pan with brown sugar gives you a nice sweet glaze on your meatloaf. Worcestershire sauce, along with garlic and onion powder, round out the flavors of this freezer-friendly meatloaf.  - Freezer-Friendly Chicken Poppy Seed Casserole—Here’s a creamy casserole recipe that has everything you could want - chicken, cheese, buttery crackers, and sour cream. It’s truly a perfect comfort food recipe.  - And four more delicious, easy recipes, including a rich dessert that’s made with crushed vanilla wafer cookies and topped with whipped cream!  And don’t forget, this digital cookbook comes with an accompanying recipes video, easy-to-follow recipes and instructions, and full-color pictures—read it all on any device or print it out for easy use in your own kitchen.
