Delicious Recipes to Keep my Family of Four Happy and Full
Thanksgiving is always a great time of year for family. But it also means there is typically a lot of leftover turkey. Instead of wondering what to do with leftover turkey, go ahead and grab a few recipes, like these turkey spinach lasagna rolls, to use it.

The moment November hits, I start dreaming of gingerbread. It is one of those things that I don’t really eat during any other time but absolutely love. Gingerbread loaf, gingerbread cookies…it really doesn’t matter!

So, I love fall. It is my hands down favorite season {since Christmas isn’t technically a season I can totally say that}! The crisp days, the crunch of leaves under your feet and all the delicious flavors like cinnamon, maple and squash. Our weather has finally stopped its seesaw pattern of warm and cool and so now I am ready to really jump in with the fall recipes on our menu plan. One of the first recipes I made for this fall has become one of my favorites. I seem to make this maple roasted butternut squash over and over but never tire of it.

Have you ever been relaxing on your couch or in bed and get a call that “surprise” you are going to have a visitor for dinner? Or maybe your in-laws decide to drop in for a little visit? This time of year those unexpected visits come a lot more frequently than they do any other. While I always love a chance to visit with friends and family, it can be a little stressful to throw something together on short notice when my to do list is already full of other “get ready for the holidays” tasks. So, I turn to a few go to ingredients that I keep on hand at all times to be able to make something quick but delicious, like caramel apple pie shooters, for everyone to enjoy…even on short notice. They are #ThankfullySweet and perfect for those unexpected visitors or even if you have plenty of time to plan but want to take a few shortcuts. #CollectiveBias

I am so excited to be participating in a great blog hop today where we are sharing ideas for Thanksgiving dishes. I have been experimenting with different stuffing recipes this year and am totally in love with this Cranberry Walnut Quinoa Stuffing.

Thanksgiving always leaves a bunch of leftovers in our house. I know most people try to give them away so they don’t have to worry about the food going to waste or having to eat the same thing over and over again. I am just the opposite.

We are ticking away the days until Thanksgiving at a fast pace. It is almost scary to think it will be here in just a few weeks. Now is the time when most of us are thinking about our menus, selecting recipes and finalizing shopping lists. As you work on yours, I have a great recipe that you should consider making a spot for on your table: quinoa stuffing with pancetta.
The dressing {or stuffing depending on where you are from} is my favorite part of the Thanksgiving meal. I like to try all different versions and you can sometimes find two or three on our table for the holiday. This quinoa version is perfect for anyone who wants or needs to be gluten free.

Holy almost mid-November already. Where is time going? Have you started thinking about Thanksgiving yet? We like to try and get together for a little pre-Thanksgiving with our friends {a Friendsgiving if you will} so I am definitely heavily focused on Thanksgiving recipes right now. Our meals with friends tend to be the kind where you can grab a few things and eat them on the move between one group of friends to another or while trying to keep all the kids at the table and eating. These mini stuffing muffins are the perfect option for that kind of meal because they are one bite and require no utensils!

You all know that I am a total bacon lover! Especially during the holiday season, I make bacon all the time and it is often cayenne candied bacon too. I was thinking of Thanksgiving favorites that I could add a little bit of a different spin to an instantly thought how great candied bacon corn pudding would be!
