A Menu Plan for Thanksgiving Week
(Originally posted November 25, 2013)
What's on the Menu for this week?
Well turkey of course!
Thanksgiving is this week and that means turkey. So really I only need to worry about meals for Monday thru Tuesday.
Last week's menu included a swap out for fried catfish and baked french fries. It was so good. The Sweet Peanut and I cooked together most days last week. We also made the delicious squash bars from KitchenStewardship. I would have taken a picture but I went upstairs to shampoo my hair and they disappeared. I'll be making more soon.
This week I like to keep dinner low key. Easy meals in anticipation of the cooking marathon. I also like to make sure we don't have any leftovers as we need that space for Thanksgiving prep items and Thanksgiving leftovers.
Sometimes I meals already prepared to go in the freezer. Sometimes my husband steps in to cook these first few days before Thanksgiving.
This past weekend I made this delicious Fall Apple Salad by Curtis Stone. You can see the pic below.
I head out tomorrow to pick up my goods for Thanksgiving dinner.
I hope you have all wonderful Thanksgiving!
Monday: Baked fish, Sweet Potato, and Spinach
Tuesday: Chicken Stir Fry
Wednesday: Lasagna (hadn't had that in a while)
Thursday: Happy Thanksgiving!
Friday: Turkey leftovers!

Oh my. My husband and I were talking about fried catfish this weekend. Two restaurants, in Vegas, are our favorites.
Everything looks so good.
Happy Thanksgiving! It’s Menu Plan Monday.
Thanks for stopping by Rona. Isn’t fried catfish so good?!! I can’t believe we’ve waited so long to have it. I added some extra spices from Penzy’s and that added a great touch!
Happy Thanksgiving to you too!
