It is t-minus one day until turkey time, folks! If you happen to be scrambling to put the finishing touches on that holiday dinner menu for tomorrow, then you are in luck because I have a few quick & easy ideas to share with you all today.
Who says that hosting a family holiday dinner has to be crazy time consuming and stressful anyways? ;) You can make it super simple & hassle-free with a few simple ingredients and a little creativity. I am sharing a handful of my favorite products & tips below for making that happen.
New RAGÚ® Butter Parmesan Sauce.
If you are looking for the perfect crowd-pleasing side dish for your Thanksgiving dinner table, then look no further than this recipe for Real Deal 3-Minute Mac from my friends at RAGÚ®. Made with aged Parmesan and real butter, RAGÚ® Butter Parmesan Sauce gives this mac and cheese recipe a rich & creamy flavor. And bonus? It comes together in just a few minutes when you use your instant pot to whip this up!
This is a side dish that is sure to please even your pickiest dinner guests this Thanksgiving.
Looking for an alternative to those usual vegetable oils and butter in your holiday dinner cooking and baking? Then give Nutiva Squeezable Organic Virgin Coconut Oil & Steam Refined Coconut Oil a go instead this holiday season!
Nutiva Squeezable Organic Virgin Coconut Oil is made from 100% organic coconuts that are cold-pressed right after harvesting for a light coconut flavor. Use it in your favorite baking, saute, & stir-frying recipes- anywhere that you would normally use butter or vegetable oil.
For those of you who prefer very little to no coconut taste, then the Nutiva Squeezable Organic Steam Refined Coconut Oil is the way to go. Since it is steam-refined, this coconut oil ends up having a neutral scent & flavor. This process also results in this coconut oil having a higher smoke point than virgin coconut oil.
Both of these squeezable coconut oils come in Nutiva's innovative mess-free packaging. Their squeezable packaging is made with less materials & produces fewer CO2 emissions than if they were packaged in glass or plastic jars.
From now until 1/1/2020, you can save 25% off your order of Nutiva Squeezable Organic Coconut Oil when you use code NUTIVA25.
** This code cannot be combined with other offers & can only be used once per customer.
Peeled Snacks.
I don't know about you all, but I like to snack a little while I am preparing Thanksgiving dinner. It keeps me from picking at the turkey like the dad from A Christmas Story, lol. But I also don't want to fill up on snacks, because hello! I want to save plenty of room for that roasted turkey, and my favorite sides, and a slice (or two) of pumpkin pie. ;)
