A Week of Dinners from the Freezer — Meal Plans from The Kitchn

• Number of meals: 6 main dishes, with side dishes and one dessert


• Sized for: Four adults with moderate appetites, or two with larger appetites


• Primary ingredients: Ground beef, pork chops, pasta, chicken, eggs

I hosted a freezer meal party a few weeks ago, and now I am enjoying the products of my labor.

Do you want to fill your freezer too? Here is a full week of freezer meals. Follow this plan and you'll have dinner for a week (or more, if you double or triple the recipes). I offer side dish recommendations too to round out your freezer cooking into a solid week of hearty, family-friendly meals.
