Menu | Week of 11.25.2013 {Thanksgiving}

It’s been a couple weeks since I did a menu post. This week is kind of important though with Thanksgiving just a few days away. One of the best holidays of the year. Last year we went to San Antonio but this year we are hosting. There will just be a few of us so kind of laid back and quiet. I can’t wait to watch the parade with William! I think he’ll love it.

I am only going to plan through Thursday this week because we’ll have leftovers and I like to make soup from the turkey carcass. 

Monday | Salmon with Kale

Tuesday | Ravioli and Salad

Wednesday | It’ll be my prep day so dinner will be easy….eggs or something like that.

Thursday | Thanksgiving!
I think I am going to try this recipe for the turkey. I made Brussels Sprouts with Bacon for Christmas last year and they were a hit. A friend emailed me a recipe years ago for Emeril Legasse’s Sweet Potato Pudding and I’ve made it so many times. It’s so easy and really good. In addition to this Pecan Pie, I’ll also make a small batch of James’ favorite rolls. My mom and sister are contributing with a couple other side dishes and dessert too so I am sure we’ll have plenty of leftovers.

Some Thanksgiving memories from 2008…
