Thanksgiving planning is about to take over your brain, your grocery list, and probably your group texts.
So this week’s plan is the breather. Nothing fussy, nothing that eats your whole evening. A soup you can simmer while the kids do homework, a salmon dinner that’s finished before the oven stops preheating, and a stuffed sweet potato that’s more filling than it has any right to be. Save your energy for the big meal. These dinners won’t ask for much.
What’s On the Menu
Creamy Potato Leek Soup
Silky, mellow, and the kind of bowl you want on a gray November evening. The leeks make it taste like it simmered all afternoon. Pair it with a salad or good bread and dinner is done.
Baked Garlic Butter Salmon
Pop it in the oven and walk away. The garlic butter pools around the fish and does all the work, so you get a dinner that tastes polished with maybe ten minutes of effort. This is your fast night.
Black Bean Stuffed Sweet Potatoes
Bake the potatoes, load them up, and you have a meatless dinner that still hits your protein. The black beans make it hearty, and everyone builds their own, which means no negotiating at the table.
Sausage Potato Frittata
Bake it once, slice it up, and breakfast is handled for days. Reheats well and holds you until lunch.
Cranberry Orange Bread
Bright, a little tart, and wonderful toasted with butter. Bake a loaf on Sunday and your counter smells like the holidays are close. It also makes a great thing to bring to a Thanksgiving week gathering.
A calm week before a big one. Grab the plan, save it, and send it to the friend who’s already stressed about the turkey.
