Last-Minute Thanksgiving Tips!

·   Go to the grocery store ASAP. As in the second you finish reading this email. To save time, get veggies that are already cut & ready to use. Some ingredients may be picked over already though, so prepare to be flexible.

·   Depending on the crowd size, multiply your chosen recipe. But also remember that there will likely be lots of food on the table, so people might not take full-sized servings of everything.

·   For slow-cooker recipes, throw it all together first thing Thursday morning. Set the pot on high (if needed), finish getting yourself and anyone else ready, and your dish should be done by the time you need to go! (Same goes for any recipe that needs to chill before serving; make it first thing.)

·   Speaking of slow cookers, add these liners to your cart immediately. Such a cleanup timesaver! Even if they don’t arrive in time for tomorrow’s dishes, you’ll be glad to have them on hand for the coming busy cold-weather months.
