Hey, everyone!
This has been a whirlwind month of a lot of hours worked (yay for brief temp assignment extensions!) and a lot of hours helping mom with some of her projects, so it’s been slow going on getting my other batch posts up.
Since it’s been a while, and since Thanksgiving is literally around the corner, AND since I know some of you still have no idea what you’ll be serving for Thanksgiving dinner, I thought I’d give you a mega batch post to help with your planning. Some of these were already on PGEW Classic, some were imported from the old site, and from appetizers to side dishes, vegetarian friendly to meat-lover friendly dishes, I’ve got you covered.
Starters

Butternut-Leek Bisque in Acorn Squash Bowls
Salami & Sweet Pepper Mini Polenta Pizzas

Love,
Kimberly
