I really got inspired with this. Money is tight with grocery prices so expensive this year, but I feel like I can still get us a Thanksgiving dinner of sorts.
Happy Thanksgiving Pacheco family !

I really need to learn to budget better lol so far I've spent $58 for my thanksgiving dinner for just myself but it's enough for 3 so I'll have leftovers. But I've been buying ingredients here and there all week or two and making all by scratch and with fresh herbs. I put it all in the freezer so I don't stress out on the actual day lol..So far I've got cheesy scalloped potatoes, candied yams, cranberry sauce and green bean casserole. The ones left is now I need to buy the turkey lol and make mashed potatoes, gravy and stuffing and dessert. Probably sweet potato pie or apple pie and ice cream. 😄😋🥰
Julia, you have inspired me to make a donation to my food bank!
Truly amazing meal on a budget!
Julia I just love your recipes. I really inspire to be like you in the kitchen. My kids and I could really use a gift card. I am recently out of work and it’s been so hard to make ends meet. I’m hoping you have a great Thanksgiving!
