Thanksgiving Menu Meal Planning- Free Printable!

Hey there, Mom 4 Real readers! It's Abby from Just a Girl and Her Blog, and I'm here with a little Thanksgiving printable for you today! Thanksgiving! Can you believe it's almost that time of year already?! I am trying to be extra organized with my Thanksgiving plans this year because my sister is getting married two days afterward... talk about a crazy holiday season! :) So to try to get our family organized with our Thanksgiving dinner plans, I put together a little printable to keep track of the menu and who is in charge of bringing what.

To put this printable into action, I started by filling out everything we were planning on having on our menu in the first column, broken down into categories (main course, appetizers & sides, desserts, and drinks). I then went back through and assigned items to different family members once I knew what each person was planning on bringing. When I had figured out which pieces others were taking care of and what I was responsible for, I could go to the ingredients list and write down everything I needed to make the food I was contributing. This made it easy to check my pantry to see what I already had and gave me a handy list to remind me of what I still needed to grab at the grocery store.

Having everything all laid out and organized will help us to avoid confusion and hopefully make everything as stress-free as possible so we can focus on enjoying time together as a family and being thankful for everything we have been blessed with! It's just a simple printable, but it can be a big help when Thanksgiving rolls around!
