Turkey Black Bean Chili Crock Pot Freezer Meal

Here's another freezer meal that I prepared a while ago. 

1.2 lbs ground turkey

30 oz black beans, drained and rinsed

2 large carrots, peeled and shredded

28 oz tomato sauce

14.5 oz petite diced tomatoes, undrained

1 2/3 cup frozen corn

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 Tbsp paprika

1 Tbsp chili powder

2 tsp ground cumin

1 1/2 tsp ground oregano

If freezing just combine all ingredients into freezer bag and freeze. 

To cook, dump everything into crock pot and cook on low for 8 hours. Break up turkey before serving. I put some cheddar cheese on top. It was so good!

Back for another crock pot freezer meal.

1 lb lean ground beef

1 small onion, diced

2 cloves garlic, minced

28 oz crushed tomato

10 oz diced tomatoes & green chilies, undrained

1/2 tsp oregano

1/2 tsp basil

1/4 tsp salt

1/4 tsp pepper

19 oz frozen cheese tortellini

1 cup mozzarella cheese

If freezing, combine everything except the tortellini and mozzarella cheese in a freezer bag. 

To cook, just dump everything except tortellini and mozzarella in crock pot and cook on low for 8  hours.  Add tortellini and cheese and cook for 15-30 more minutes until tortellini is cooked. 

Chicken Cacciatore Crock Pot Freezer Meal

It's time for the first recipe in part 3 of my crock pot freezer meals. This recipe was delicious. I doubled the recipe to make 2 meals and we've actually eaten both of them already.

2-3 Chicken Breasts

1 onion, sliced

1 green bell pepper, sliced

28 ounces crushed tomatoes

29 ounces diced tomatoes

3 cloves garlic, minced or crushed

1 Tbsp dried basil

1 tsp pepper

1/2 tsp salt

(the above ingredients make one meal, I doubled mine and froze it in 2 bags)

To freeze just combine all ingredients in a freezer bag and freeze. Thaw in refrigerator the night before. 

To cook, just toss it all in the crock pot and cook on low or medium for 6 hours. Serve over pasta.
