What's the hardest part about sticking to a keto diet, or any diet for that matter? Consistency.
You know those thoughts that creep up like "it's just one cheat meal", "there's nothing else in the fridge that's keto", "I'll get back on the diet tomorrow"?
Everyone has these thoughts and makes these mistakes. What if there was a solution to these problems? What if you had a freezer stocked with delicious keto meals that truly cook themselves and they were easy to make? This is where freezer meals come in! This way of cooking really does take all of the stress and guesswork out of sticking to your diet for good.
What Are Freezer Meals?
Freezer meals are meals that are frozen raw for up to 90 days. You label the bags and cook the meals fresh on the day you want to eat them. It's kind of like buying those frozen meals at the grocery store but those grocery store meals aren't healthy. It's very easy to prepare healthy freezer meals because you determine the ingredients yourself.
Most meal-prepped foods are bland after they've been in the refrigerator for a day or two. Most meal-prepped foods are all the same and it gets boring to eat the same things every day.
Freezer meals, on the other hand, are prepared all at once but you cook them fresh the day you want to eat them. They're easy to prepare. The meals aren't bland. They can be delicious if you have the right recipes.

Keto Recipes for Freezer Meals
Keto freezer meal recipes are different from normal keto meal recipes. Why? It's because the ingredients need to freeze correctly. You can't freeze all raw ingredients for 90 days. The ingredients need to be selected carefully to ensure they will freeze correctly and still taste great when cooked.
