Bacon cheeseburgers are amazing… they can be time-consuming to make at home though. You not only have to prepare your burgers but also cook the bacon, slice the tomatoes and onions, and toast the bun for that satisfying warmth. What mom has time for that on a regular school night? Certainly not me.

How to Freeze Bacon Cheeseburger Meatloaf

Unless you’re feeding a crowd, 3 meatloaves are enough for 3 meals. To freeze them, cover the loaf pan with foil. Add a piece of painter’s tape to the top and label with the meal, cooking instructions, and serving recommendations.

Freezer Cooking Instructions

I hate it when I forget to defrost dinner which is why I love freezer meals that I can throw in the oven or Crock Pot frozen. That’s totally how you prepare these super easy meatloaves. Simply remove the painter’s tape label (carefully so that you don’t rip the foil). Then place in a 400° oven for 1 to 1.5 hours. Then serve it topped with barbecue sauce and with your choice of side dish for a super simple weeknight meal.
