It feels like just yesterday was January, and here we are almost at the end of the year preparing for Thanksgiving. Wow! November’s Menu also includes a small Thanksgiving dinner menu as well with a separate grocery list for Thanksgiving dinner and leftovers. The past couple months, I have been pretty behind on my menu plans, and really posting new recipes overall. I’m not really sure what was going on, and why I took such a break from writing, but I feel like with the holidays coming up and my two favorite holidays, Thanksgiving and Christmas, I have been inspired to get back in the kitchen and share recipes from my favorite time of year.
November’s Menu comes with two separate costs as well. If we’re including Thanksgiving, November’s Menu rings up at $278. Without Thanksgiving, it’s only $212. That means it’s only $66 for a full Thanksgiving dinner!

There are surprisingly quite a few vegetarian recipes on November’s menu, I guess subconsciously I am just trying to eat healthy before I stuff my face full of everything on the Thanksgiving dinner table! The separate grocery list for Thanksgiving is there because I know that for most of us, we don’t actually host Thanksgiving, and just bring home leftovers. If you’re bringing home leftovers instead of making a Thanksgiving dinner, add some chicken stock, egg noodles and good bread to your grocery list for delicious leftovers like Turkey Noodle Soup and Turkey Sandwiches!
