15 Easy Freezer Snacks You’re Not Making Yet
Want to curb hunger cravings fast? Pick up a few of these frozen appetizers and snacks at the grocery store! These ready-to-heat foods all but guarantee you won't let hanger take over.
Mini Beef Meatballs
You might originally buy these bite-sized meatballs for your kids, but I promise you’ll start snacking on them before too long! Dunk them in marinara, douse ’em in teriyaki sauce or enjoy them as-is for a tasty snack. I’ve even used them to make my lunch meatball sandwich in a pinch.
Chicken and Cheese Taquitos
They’re crunchy, cheesy and protein-packed. What more could you want from a snack? These taquitos also make a quick-and-easy party appetizer if you plate them up with a side of homemade guacamole.
Potstickers
If you don’t have a box of potstickers in your freezer, you’re missing out. They’re the most versatile frozen food on the planet (and these are gluten free)! You can pan fry them to serve as a snack or appetizer, but you can also add them to chicken broth to make a filling soup. Dinner in an instant!
Mini Corn Dogs
Everything tastes better when it’s mini! These cornmeal-battered cocktail franks pack a ton of flavor into a tiny little package. Making them fancy is easy, too. Get inspired with our favorite ways to make hot dogs even more fun.
Pizza Bagels
You might need to keep this box hidden in the back of the freezer because pizza bagels are everyone’s favorite frozen appetizer! I always buy the plain cheese kind; you could eat them as-is, but you can’t go wrong with these topping options.
Puff Pastry-Wrapped Cheesy Mini Hot Dogs
If traditional corn dogs aren’t classy enough for your fancy dinner party, pick up a package of these puff pastry-wrapped mini hot dogs. The addition of Parmesan cheese and spices adds so much flavor, you won’t even need a dipping sauce!
Assorted Mini Quiches
If you’re hosting a dinner party, the last thing you need is to spend time and effort making the appetizer. Toss these assorted quiches in the oven and you’ll look like a rock star for serving up three different options. Go you!
Jalapeno Peppers
I don’t always have time to make jalapeno poppers from scratch, so I always keep a package of these in the freezer. I’ll let you in on a little secret: If you reheat them in the oven instead of the microwave, they’ll taste as crispy as the deep-friend kind you get at a restaurant!
Loaded Potato Skins
There’s nothing better than a creamy potato stuffed with cheese and bacon. You don’t need a restaurant to enjoy this appetizer, either. Whip up a batch of ranch and enjoy this tasty snack in the comfort of your own home.
Mini Stuffed Bagels
Okay, these cream cheese-stuffed bagel bites are not only delicious, but they also happen to be completely adorable. Bantam also makes egg-stuffed bites, too, if you’re looking for a snack with a punch of protein.
Chicken Nuggets
No freezer is complete without a package of chicken nuggets. You can relive your childhood by eating them with ketchup, but you can also create buffalo chicken bite appetizers, use them for chicken Parmesan, or create an endless variety of salads and sandwiches.
Buttermilk Mini Pancakes
Pancakes might be a breakfast staple, but these bite-sized cakes are made for snacking. They’re absolutely perfect for picking up and dunking into maple syrup or homemade jam. Need I say more?
Egg Rolls
Nothing satisfies my hunger cravings like an egg roll. Crunchy on the outside, warm and savory on the inside, and completed by a sweet-and-spicy dipping sauce. Forget going through the trouble to wrap and fry them yourself and keep a package of these on-hand instead.
Spanakopita
This traditional Greek appetizer features flaky phyllo pastry filled with spinach and creamy cheeses. One makes a filling snack, but put them all on a tray and you’ve created a fancy party platter. The best part: they don’t taste like they came from the freezer section!
Garlic & Butter Mini Toasties
These mini toasties absolutely satisfy when all you want is something hot and crunchy. They taste great on their own with a side of marinara, but you can also fancy them up for a party with one of these top ways to love toast!
