Budget friendly easy meal plans!!!

Obviously all of my ingredients came from different stores however I priced it all out using the Walmart app and if you only shop there the price would come out to roughly $85 for everything plus a bag of rice and potatoes for extra sides!!

These meals are actually what I’m putting together for a postpartum freezer friendly meal plan. I put the meat and marinades all in a bag and throw it in the freezer then all I have to do is either thaw it to cook in the oven or dump it in the crockpot and get it go!

I’ll cook rice, pasta, or potatos to go with it to balance to meal but those things are easy to toss on the stove or in the air fryer!!

Not to mention all these meals are extremely balanced especially if you use protein pasta!! 10/10 recommend doing this if you have a busy life this took me about an hour to prep all of these!

... Read moreCreating a postpartum freezer meal plan has been a real game-changer in managing time and nutrition during busy days. By prepping meals in advance and freezing them in marinade bags, I can simply thaw or use the crockpot when needed, which drastically reduces mealtime stress. One thing I always include is protein-rich pasta options like chickpea penne, which not only boosts the nutritional value but also keeps meals satisfying. Pairing these with easy-to-cook sides like rice, air-fried potatoes, or riced cauliflower risotto adds variety without extra effort. Using ingredients like Kirkwood boneless skinless chicken thighs and Burman's Teriyaki stir-fry sauce helps ensure the meals are flavorful and wholesome. Shopping primarily at Walmart allowed me to keep the total cost around $85, covering six meals. This includes fresh frozen mixed vegetables like carrots, corn, green beans, and peas, which are great for balanced nutrition. I also suggest trying slow cooker recipes such as teriyaki chicken or pesto chicken pasta, which require minimal hands-on time. Overall, investing an hour in prepping and freezing these meals helped me maintain a balanced diet without compromising convenience. If you're managing postpartum recovery or a busy lifestyle, adopting a dump-and-go approach with varied, nutrient-dense ingredients is definitely worth trying. It relieves the pressure of daily cooking while supporting health and energy levels.

How long would you cook these for in the crockpot from frozen?
