Thanksgiving will be a day filled with family and laughter. It will be a day to create memories. Don’t spend more time than you have to in the kitchen that day. Get a head start today.
Today’s Countdown to Christmas Challenge is to decide what can be cooked or prepared today and get it done. Need vegetables cut for the stuffing? Do all of your chopping today. Can you prepare and refrigerate the casserole today so that it is ready to go in the oven on Thursday? Does the cranberry sauce need time to set up? Go beyond opening a can of cranberry sauce this Thanksgiving. Native Americans introduced the Pilgrims to the taste and benefits of cranberries long ago. My Aunt Vicki has always made Cranberry Salad for my extended family’s get-together and though I tried hard to find a unique recipe for our family’s traditional meal, nothing was as good to me as Aunt Vicki’s.
What on your Thanksgiving menu can you make ahead of time? Visit the 100 Days to Christmas Facebook page and tell us about it.
