Cavatini Supreme Family Freezer Meal

Cavatini Supreme is a family-friendly meal that even the pickiest of eaters will ask for seconds of. This kid approved dinner will serve a crowd and is perfect to freeze or double… and I’ll be the first to admit that I’m a “sub-par” cook. I can’t do complicated. I often make a huge mess. And my top goal is to feed my family something everything will at least tolerate, but ideally all enjoy. My neighbor and friend, Jess, made this meal for us and it has become a staple for our family ever since– a total crowd pleaser.

She dropped off this family freezer meal right on our doorstep after we had our last baby, and I think it took me about 30 seconds after my first bite to text her asking for the recipe. It’s a meal my family loves as a weekly dinner. And it’s morphed into a meal that is my go-to to drop off for any new mom meal trains. The first recipe that comes to mind for care packages or the first recipe I recommend when a friend is in one of those “dinner ruts” that we all get in. Save this one, share it, and send a mental “thank you, Jess!” right along with me.
