Back-To-School Freezer Meals Prep and Recipes

in back to school, contributors, easy recipes, food on 09/30/17

It’s hard to believe that the beginning of the school year is already here. I’ve been enjoying the laid back feel that summer carries with it. Picnic dinners with friends, casual BBQ’s and late nights, but all that has now changed. The school year brings with it a routine that summer lacks. If motherhood has taught me one thing, it’s that preparation is the key to success.

In the spirit of preparedness, I’ve put together three recipes you can make and freeze now so that you’re ready for back-to-school dinners. These recipes are tried, true and delicious because they were my grandmother’s. She was an excellent cook, and these meals are the food of my childhood. All are healthy meals that I hope your family will love too!

Tuscan Ribollita Soup

Swedish Cauliflower Meatballs with a Creamy Mushroom Gravy

Growth (and Tips) in 2011

 

Lasagna Roll Ups

[ultimate-recipe id=”11607″ template=”default”]

 

After freezing the meals, I would recommend defrosting overnight in the fridge
or 2-3 hours if left out on the counter.

Preparing three meals in one day seems like a big job, but the reward of having dinner ready to go is worth the effort. Double or triple the recipes to make even more in advance. My favorite thing to do is invite a friend over so that both of you can share the work and the reward of these fantastic meals. The school year is here so let’s get ourselves prepped and ready with some healthy and easy weeknight dinners!

For more information about how to get started making freezer meals, check out this post: HERE

🏢 Setting: Joshua meeting his new Occupational Therapist (OT). Pictures are worth a thousand words. As a fluent interpreter of all things Joshua 📷  snapshots #1-4 are an interpretation of some of his classic facial narratives. 

📷 #1 “OK, Ms. New OT Lady, nice drawing of a bunny but I got real bunny action going on in my backyard! Saw a big fluffy gray & white bunny hopping around all day. You just had to be there!”🐰 

📷 #2 “What do you mean I press the button and all bubbles come shooting out real fast? This is AWESOME!” 🫧

📷 #3 “That is what I was saying too! If everybody can eat snacks during therapy, we would all get along so much better.” 🍩🍟🍌🍪

📷 #4 “We’re holding hands now…it’s about to be Jesus time!” 🙏

🏢 Setting: 📷  Snapshots #5-8 are with his regular Speech Therapist (ST). 

📷 #5 “Uh..what’s up with this turkey?” 🦃

📷 #6 “Oh, you need MY help so YOU can finish this turkey. Even though it somehow says Joshua on the turkey, I know it’s really your work.”🍗

📷 #7 “Aren’t you glad I came in today to help you, Ms. Speech Therapist? What are friends for?” 🍂

📷 #8 “Yes, I’m wearing one of my older twin brothers’ @hopepreparatoryacademy jackets. It is nice that Mommy & my brothers are the community leaders, but truth be told, everybody really knows ME! 😁 (Jeremiah 29:11)

#LaterGram In honor of the #StrangerThings cast premiere for the highly anticipated final season 5, reliving a few moments from the #StrangerThingsExperience in Seattle, which was AMAZING! I attended when it first opened. Cameras were not allowed to document the immersive assignment. Needlessly to say, we had to save the kids and Hawkins. I was screaming my head off with excitement and surprise! Looking forward to the new season!

🎙️ Honored to be a guest on “The Empower Hour”—The Women Radio Network LIVE!  to discuss “Women’s Voices: Overcoming Obstacles.” 

🌿 Every woman has a divine purpose that can be realized at any age, season, and stage of life.
No dream is too late, and no obstacle is too great when faith, perseverance, and purpose lead the way.

🧖‍♀️ I also shared why self-care is not a luxury—it’s a necessity.
Our mental and physical health are the foundation of our strength, creativity, and calling. When we care for ourselves, we honor the God-given purpose within us.

💖 To all women walking through challenges—remember, your story matters. Your voice has power. And your purpose is unstoppable.

🎧 Thank you, The Women Radio Network, for amplifying women’s voices and creating space for honest, empowering conversations. The episode can be streamed on YouTube Live and anywhere you listen to podcasts tomorrow.

💚Today is #WorldMentalHealthDay. Special needs families experience mental distress 5 times as often as those without disabilities. 
🧩 Joshua is a child who is autistic and had a new diagnosis of focal seizures last year. Through prayer and medication, he has been great and has not had a seizure in many months! 🙌
💔However, yesterday, we were unceremoniously informed that Joshua had been dismissed from the private special needs school he had attended for almost five years and that his last day of school was today. The only reason was that the school’s leadership did not want to administer the (easy) life-saving emergency seizure rescue medication he needs if a seizure occurs at school. 
💉The medication is an injection that is given in the arm or leg if he has a seizure. To quote the Doctor who showed us how to do it: “This is so simple even a child can do this.”
✏️The school where I have served as President of the Parent Teacher Fellowship for the past two years has seen my family and me dedicate countless hours volunteering over the last five years—not just with our time or sweat equity but also by contributing resources, expertise, monetary support, promoting initiatives, &, most importantly, showing loyalty. 
🙌 As a mother, advocate, and #SpecialNeeds Pastor, we move forward the same way we always have, especially where Joshua is concerned—in total faith. Some things occur that we don’t understand why they are happening at the time or place they did. Only God knows the answer to that. (Deuteronomy 29:29). All we have to do is trust and believe that He knows what is best. He wants us to live a whole and abundant life. (John 10:10). Joshua’s life verse is “For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” (Jeremiah 29:11).
What was meant for harm will be turned around for good. This temporary test will be added to our testimony.
Joshua’s life has already been the launchpad and inspiration of @HopeTorchlighters, #BuddyBreak, & others that support #specialneeds families. This sweet boy will continue to thrive & God will continue to use Him! 🙌💙 #TeamJoshua #JoshuasAngels
