2024 Thanksgiving Menu and Meal Prep Timeline

* image These past few months have been busy for our family, especially since our oldest joined a local swim team. Between juggling our work schedules and balancing school with practices... we're all pretty wiped out. Although it's a lot of work, I'm looking forward to Thanksgiving. Preparing the holiday meal for our family fills my heart with joy, and I can't wait to get started. To make things easier for me, I don't deviate much from  our first Thanksgiving  as a family. The dishes I make are familiar ones, and the recipes for them live at my fingertips. Keeping the same menu year after year means I don't have to spend time researching recipes or planning a new one. Here are my tried-and-true Thanksgiving recipes, as well as my prep timeline for the big day!

Menu Plan: May 10 - May 16

Sharing our Menu Plan for May 10 - May 16.


With Mother's Day, my birthday (I turn 35 tomorrow... gulp), and a rather packed schedule, it looks like I won't be doing very much cooking this week. In fact, now that I think about it, I'm only planning on cooking dinner twice.

Just once if Stephen decides to spoil the birthday girl with another night off from cooking. ;-)

I've decided to share our menu plan for the week regardless of the fact that I'll be out of the kitchen more often than I'll be in it. So... if you're curious to see what's on deck for dinner for us on the nights I will be cooking, then keep reading!

Menu Plan: May 10 - May 16, 2015

Sunday: Dinner Out (Mother's Day)

Monday: Pan-Seared Scallops, Crispy Thai Brussels Sprouts from Healthy Aperture, and Wild Rice

Tuesday: Ground Turkey Taco Night with Homemade Taco Seasoning

Wednesday: Stephen's Choice

Thursday - Saturday: Dinner Out

Looks lame, right? I told you... my calendar is full, so cooking every night just isn't in the cards. Hopefully, things will be back on track again next week. If you have suggestions as to what I should make, then feel free to let me know in the comments below.

Before I dash off, I want to wish all of the moms out there a Happy Mother's Day. As a new mom, I'm definitely planning on treasuring every second of it! xo
