Make & Freeze

The ultimate guide to family-friendly meal prep



The general family cookbook to equip you with everything you need to tackle those hectic days

Make & Freeze is the ideal family cookbook, with 100 recipes that can all be made in advance and popped in the freezer. Family life is hectic, and parents don’t always have the time or energy to cook from scratch every evening.

With recipes ranging from School Morning Pancakes to lunchbox Blueberry and Ricotta Muffins and Chickpea and Squash Curry, Make and Freeze is real homecooked food for time-poor parents. Lou’s recipes are healthier, cheaper and tastier than shop-bought packaged food, and are just as easy to grab from the freezer when you need them on a rainy day.

About the author

Lou Robbie

Lou Robbie is a professional chef and busy mum of 2. She has always loved food, and trained as a chef in her late 20’s. When she became a mum, Lou realised how important her food skills were now that she had to nurture and nourish not only herself but her small ones. After speaking with other parents, Lou realised just how fortunate she was to feel confident in her ability in the kitchen. In 2021, she started her business Little Lou Cooks, where she now shares her recipes online full-time. She has 1M followers on Instagram, and 754k on Facebook and 138k on TikTok (@littleloucooks). Her first book Make & Freeze (2025) was an instant Sunday Times Bestseller.

Praise for Make & Freeze

As a parent, I know the madness of the dinnertime rush all too well. Make & Freeze is the book I wish I had years ago- simple, home-cooked recipes you can stash in the freezer and rely on when the kiddos are tearing down the house. Lou is laser-focused on helping you feed your family well, without losing your mind in the process.
