Can you believe it is November already? Thanksgiving will be here before we know it.
Speaking of Thanksgiving, I have 9 new recipes to share between now and the third week of November. This means I’ll be posting 3 or 4 recipes a week. All but one of the recipes have been tested and approved by my family. One of the recipes is for a turkey breast that my mother-in-law has raved about.
The majority of the recipes are for the slow cooker. Anything to make it easier for you. A week before Thanksgiving, I’m going to give you my plan for making the foods in stages as not to do it all on Thanksgiving.
This is going to be our first year hosting Thanksgiving so that will be fun. Last year I made the side dishes and then transported them over to my mother-in-law’s house. We’ve already invited my mother, sister, and mother-in-law to Thanksgiving. We have a few other people we want to invite also.
I’ll be posting my first Thanksgiving dish today on my Cooking It Slow blog. It’s for Makes It Own Gravy Turkey Breast and Easy Gravy.

Menu Plan Monday
I created a printable menu but am changing the dates on a few of the meals. We have leftover side dishes that would go better with the meatloaf then the beenie weenies. So I’m flip flopping the meatloaf and beenie weenies.
As you can see, I’m still using the crockpot for my meals. It’s so much easier to use the crockpot for our meals.
Monday – Crockpot Meatloaf, sweet potato casserole, stuffing, and veggies
Tuesday – Chicken fajitas, Spanish rice
Wednesday – Beenies Weenies (We didn’t make them last week.)
Thursday – Sausage and cheesy hash brown casserole
Friday – Barbecue Chicken Legs, pasta side dish, veggies
What’s on your menu this week?

Happy Eating,
