Are you ready to have a meal plan that you can actually stick to, and save money while doing it?
Actually enjoy dinner time again with this amazing guide! One month of meal plans that has everything you need to succeed at saving time and money in the kitchen
(even with cranky kids, and a messy kitchen).
Dinner time can be overwhelming.
As a busy mom, you're faced with so many challenges at dinner time.
There are cranky kids, messy kitchens, and just enough food that never seems to make a full recipe.
At the end of the night, more than half the time you are calling for takeout, the food in the fridge goes bad, and BOTH your grocery bill and eating out spending is outrageous.
You know there is a better way to meal plan and to save money but you just don't have the time or the headspace to figure that out right now.
- 20 Recipes that are kid-approved and easy to make (with substitution options for almost every ingredient!)
- 4 Weekly meal plans each with five meals strategically designed to save you time and money
- 4 One day prep session outlines so you spend less time in the kitchen (and you actually make meals during the week)
- Grocery lists for each week so you can literally order groceries from your couch without having to come up with a list and wonder what to get
- Helpful tip sheets: Cooking with kids, Pantry Stock Up Items, and Batch Cooking Freezer Meals
Is this you?
- Mealtimes, no matter what time of day, are stressful. You’re always dreading the question ‘what do we have to eat?’
- You end up eating out for lunches, dinners, and more breakfasts than you care to admit because looking at the fridge and figuring out what to eat is stressful.
- Between work, school, and extra-curricular activities you feel like you are always running to one thing or another and cooking a meal always ends up being impossible
- Even with a fridge full of food you don’t know what to make and half of it ends up going bad.
- You hate being asked what is for lunch because you never really know.
Who wants to try and chop up vegetables in the middle of that kind of nonsense?
What if meals looked like this instead?
- No more scrolling for Pinterest for recipes that may not work out in the end
- No more stressing over making the perfect meal plan and making your own grocery list
- No more stressful nights where you try to prep lunch while your kids are super grumpy
- No more rushing to McDonald's to grab lunch (that costs more than this easy step-by-step guide!)

I don't have enough room in my freezer!
I do a month of freezer meal prep only with the freezer attached to my fridge! This takes way less space than you'd think. If you are concerned I recommend starting only making two weeks of meals.
I have food intolerances or allergies, how do I know if this is safe?
As a food allergy mom myself I take allergies and dietary restrictions VERY seriously.
All of my guides have dairy and gluten alternatives listed.
They typically do not contain nuts.
This guide is also free of fish, sesame, or shellfish.
This guide does include soy, it can be substituted for coconut aminos with no issues.
If you have any other dietary restrictions and wonder if this will work for you please feel free to email me at rachel@thiscraftyhome.com and I am more than happy to help you figure out if it will work for your family!
I've had freezer meals before and they taste bad. How are these different?
Yep, I totally get that. ALL of these meals have been thoroughly tested and optimized for the freezer.
They taste amazing! There isn't any discernable taste difference for these recipes.
These are not just leftovers frozen, they are specifically made to be delicious from the freezer.
Do you offer refunds?
Yep! I offer a 30 day money back guarentee because I seriously LOVE this product and know it's totally worth it.
Let customers speak for us
I haven't used the new guide yet but I'm looking forward to trying the new recipes.
Haven’t started yet due to holidays but everything is very clear. Will be a big help in the new year
I’ve loved every meal I’ve made from you, and I love how everything is broken down with how to freeze it because that’s my ultimate goal. I’ll definitely buy more plans in the future
Can’t believe I was able to prepare 10 meals in 2.5 hours. Dinner prep and clean up is sooooo much better. It makes the day feel less stressful haha and we’ve been pleasantly surprised by how delicious these meals have been! My meat eating husband and kids have loved every meal we’ve tried so far! Win win winning!
This has been one of the best decisions we made. With an elderly mama that doesn’t want to cook much and I work all day and not sure what to make each night….this takes out the guess work!
Can I say that freezer prepping has been an absolute lifesaver and game changer for me? Rather than spending close to
$1000 each month on groceries that is usually throw out - I’ve managed to get it to
$500 a month for breakfast lunch and dinner. Definitely worth every cent these books!

I am not a mom (unless you count dog moms, hahaha), but I am a very busy woman. Between full-time and part-time jobs, running my own business, volunteering regularly, training my puppy, studying for licensing exams, preparing for a big presentation later this year, and moving into a new house, I don't have as much time as I'd like to cook fresh, nutritious, and delicious meals every night. And I'm someone who LOVES to cook!
Enter these freezer meal guides. I found them through TikTok and I'm so glad I did! I was surprised at how easy and fast it was to make an entire month's worth of dinners for my roommates and me. I was even more surprised that it all fit in my relatively small freezer. Now after work, all I have to do is pop these recipes in my Instant Pot (I also love that there are instructions for Instant Pots) and dinner is served! I will buy more of these guides and tell all my friends about them. If you're on the fence about this, just go for it! You can always customize the recipe, but the mental load it takes off of you and the time you save is well worth it.
I found it super easy to follow and grocery shop for.
I have been thinking about trying this freezer meal plan forever. I finally decided to go for it and try the summer meal plan and am so glad I did! I got all of the groceries I needed for about $275 and completed the meal prep in around 5 hours. I love the step by step instructions that break it down how to do all of the meals in one long cooking session or 2 shorter cooking sessions. This is going to save me so much decision fatigue on deciding what's for dinner, save me so much time in the kitchen every day, and save my family so much money. With these freezer meals I have meals that will feed my whole family for less than $14 per meal. Not per plate- per meal. I can feed my whole family for $14! This is truly a game changer!
I love the meal guides! They are broke down and organized so well!!
I absolutely love all of Freezer Meal Guides! I have all 3 of the 4 season bundles. Major win for me is every meal I’ve made my four kids have loved!
Loved everything about this - it was so easy to put together. There were a few things that didn’t seem clear in the instructions, so make sure you read carefully and double check the recipes as you’re prepping.
I’m not one to write reviews but this meal plan was everything I was looking for and more! I get so overwhelmed thinking of what to make for dinner, I noticed I was ordering takeout a lot more due to being burnt out eating the same thing and not having enough time during the weeknights to make something. I am so lucky to have found these monthly meal plans! We liked almost every recipe and I enjoyed the easy to follow shopping list! My husband even helped me shop for everything and assemble the bags! It took us 3 hours to buy all the ingredients and 5-6 hours to prep 20 meals but I expect we’ll get faster! We’ve had 3 meals so far and it is AMAZING not having to cook once I get off work. I have more free time to walk the dogs, clean, work in my garden which has been neglected! Highly recommend!
