Gluten free freezer meals can be a lifesaver! These 14 meals are easy and healthy ways to make sure you always have something delicious ready to serve!
Gluten Free Freezer Meals
Having ready to serve meals in my freezer has saved me on more than one occasion. If you have been gluten free for any length of time, you know that just grabbing something out isn’t generally that simple.
Whether you’re prepping for a new baby, a busy time in life, or just want to have some more time in your evenings, these meals are for you.
My favorite way to prep freezer meals is to just make two batches at a time. One for dinner the night I’m making it and one for the freezer. I usually buy aluminum pans to freeze them in, but if you are lucky enough to have enough glass dishes to use, that would be a better option.
Be sure to let me know in the comments which one of these meals is your favorite! You can get any of the full recipes by clicking on the picture.

February 16, 2019 at 8:59 pmHow do you freeze the arozo con pollo?
Amanda
February 21, 2019 at 4:32 pmWe usually freeze it in individual rubbermaid containers. To reheat it I place a damp paper towel over it and put it in the microwave for about 5 minutes or until it is hot.

June 25, 2021 at 10:24 amI am looking at the crockpot teriyaki chicken and wondering how well it freezes given there is cornstarch in it. I have had some issues with freezing stuff with cornstarch. Has this been an issue for you?
