November 27 - Chicken and Dumplings

Chicken and dumplings is such a great meal for a cold winter day! It's cozy and comforting and makes the whole house smell amazing when it's cooking.
I use store-bought biscuit dough to make the dumplings, which saves me time.
This recipe is a great way to use up leftover turkey if you still have some, too. Just swap out the chicken for turkey. YUM!
November 28 - Honey Garlic Chicken

I love this all-in-one slow cooker honey garlic chicken meal.
Want to know my veggie secret for this dish? I add about 1 cup of riced broccoli to the dish. It blends right into the sauce and my kids don't even know they're eating it!
This meal is great with rice or noodles.
November 29 - Italian Wedding Soup

Whether you use store-bought frozen meatballs or make your own meatballs, this Italian wedding soup is sure to please!
I always serve this with some sort of bread or roll (ove my carbs!)
Try our cheesy herb bombs, sweet potato rolls, or quick Italian breadsticks.
November 30 - Sheet Pan Caprese Chicken

Caprese chicken with tomatoes, basil, and mozzarella is so good, and this sheet pan recipe is super easy.
There are lots of great ways to serve this meal:
Try it with penne or ziti tossed in olive oil.
Add some potatoes or sweet potatoes to the baking sheet.
You can also serve this it as is or on top of a bed of greens for a great low-carb meal.
December 1 - Slow Cooker Pull Pork

Slow cooker pulled pork is such a great versatile make-ahead meal.This recipe makes a lot, which is perfect because you'll use the leftovers tomorrow.
Tonight, make pulled pork sliders with purple cabbage slaw.
December 2 - Pulled Pork Mac and Cheese

Use the leftover pork to make this scrumptious pulled pork mac and cheese recipe.
Looking for a lighter dish? Try our pulled pork lettuce cups instead. (Another great low carb meal).
December 3 - Chicken Hashbrown Casserole

I adore this creamy chicken hashbrown casserole. It's cheesy and topped with bacon - what's better than that, right?
Serve this casserole with a side salad and give one of these yummy recipes a try:
Snacks & Appetizers

Loaded Potato Skins are SO good - perfect for game day. Add some sour cream on the side and you're good to go!
If you're hosting a game day get together this week, try our buffalo chicken dip, cheesy bacon dip, and pizza puff pastry pockets, too.
Dessert

These red velvet cake balls are perfect for parties! One batch makes dozens, which is a good thing because people can't eat just one of them!
If you're not up for red velvet, try these yummy brownie truffles or pumpkin cake balls instead.
Holiday Baking
I like to get a jump start on holiday baking by making cookie dough and popping it into the freezer for later.
Breakfast

These ham and cheese croissants are great for breakfast (they're tasty for a snack, too).
You can also add a little bit of spinach or switch the ham out for sausage links.
These reheat in the microwave great so they're a wonderful make ahead recipe.

Food holidays are kind of silly but it can be a good chance to talk with kids about different foods, where they come from, and any cultural significance. It's also a great way to think out-of-the-box and shake up your routine!
