We can’t talk enough doubling all freezable meals to save you cooking time in the kitchen. Here we list some of our top-rated freezable meals from the PlanBuyCook app. These are the meals that you cook up to the point of serving, and leave half to cool to room temperature before freezing for later weeks. Some will require a side of rice, pasta or extra veg, but that is a breeze compared with making six or seven dinners a week from scratch.
