Thanks so much for sharing!

Reclaim dinner time with these 30 healthy freezer meals {gluten free slow cooker recipes, soups, stews, and chili} you can make ahead of time for a quick, easy, and nourishing weeknight meal!

Today I’m throwing you a party!

And, we’re celebrating all fall and winter long, with a delicious round-up of gluten-free healthy freezer meals from my food blogger and dietitian friends.

Together, we’re bringing you 45 deliciously healthy freezer meals to help you reclaim dinner time, and de-stress over the busy holiday season.

What could be better than coming home from a long day of work, or shuttling the kids to and from sports and after-school-activities, to a piping hot bowl of chili, or a cup of luscious lentil soup?

Maybe a foot massage from your significant other??? Hint, hint if you’re reading this Mr. Spicy!

This can be your reality when you defrost one of these healthy freezer meals, and pair it with my super easy “Best Rolls Ever” aka “Pao de Quejo” aka “Brazilain Cheese Puffs” aka “Gluten-Free Crack Rolls” {Yes, they are THAT good.}, and some fresh fruit on the side.

Dinner is served!

Note: I’ve divided the recipes in to slow cooker soups, slow cooker stew/meat/chili, non-slow cooker soup, non-slow cooker stew/meat/chili, and I have also indicated vegetarian recipes with “veg” and vegan recipe with “V” so you can find exactly what you’re looking for.
