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: August 6 - August 12

Looking for dinner inspiration? Here's what I've planned for dinner at our house this week!

Even though the intention to share our weekly menu plan was in my heart all day, the motivation wasn't. Life with a toddler and a newborn has gotten the better of me... especially since the baby seems to want to nurse every two hours.

Exhaustion has definitely set in.

Since it's so late already, let's just cut to the chase. Here's what's on deck for dinner at our house this week.

Sunday

Turkey Lettuce Wraps (based on this recipe)

Monday

Grilled Cheese Sandwiches and Creamed Cauliflower Soup

Tuesday


Wednesday

Stephen's Choice

Thursday

Grilled Boneless Strip Loin Steak with Fiery Pomegranate Sauce, Jasmine Rice, and Steamed Green Beans

Friday

Naan Flatbread Pizza with Roasted Grape Tomatoes, Garlic, and Fresh Mozzarella

Saturday
