It’s THANKSGIVING WEEK!!
We are home this week enjoying the downtime, the family time, and trying to squeeze in a whole lot of fun. Andrew is recovering really well from his bicep surgery (that he had on Friday) which is a huge bonus too. His parents are about to be here, and we will have fa la la la fun all week long 🙂 .
Alrighty, If you’re looking for some easy recipes for your family this week before the big holiday, I have you covered! From simple suppers to several great leftover recipes, it’s my Thanksgiving Week Edition of Meal Planning Monday. This week is all about EASY!
I hope you have the BEST start to your holiday! xx

On Monday, make a double batch of MY EASIEST WEEKNIGHT BRISKET. You’re eating sandwiches tonight and then tomorrow night…

…you’ll use the leftovers to add to my EASY WEEKNIGHT BRISKET CHILI! I am serious when I tell you that once you make this version, you will have a HARD time going back to basic chili.
For Thanksgiving Eve, you should absolutely make…

I couldn’t wait for another Trader Joe’s post to ask! Have I been living under a rock? Have you mentioned TJ’s Buffalo ranch popcorn and I forgot to write it down and purchase? I went yesterday for neccessities and found it in the chip aisle. I was intrigued, as I don’t remember seeing it before, and it surely can’t be a seasonal item? But, oh my, deliciousness!!! Please tell me you’ve tried it! And if you haven’t, make sure to find it! The flavor was delicious.
