What You Will Learn?

  • Impress your friends and family, stress free! If you are looking for something a little different than the usual for the Fall holidays, this will be your new go-to!.
  • You will find an amazing menu on here for 8 people, but it can easily be doubled, tripled, etc. I have a bacon wrapped turkey breast roast on here if it will be for a smaller group. In this case the recipes for the sides can be halved or quartered..
  • The recipes you will find on here are: .
  • Learn how to make every recipe step-by-step with video and detailed instructions so you will feel confident and stress free in the kitchen..
  • You will find on here in PDF form, A Guide to Stress-Free Cooking Success for Your Holiday Meals.
  • In this guide:.
  • Most of the menu is designed to be made ahead of time. You will take a small amount of time each day to prepare, so everything will be done by turkey day! Just a heads up, one of the longest days will be the day you bake the cheesecake. This can take up to 4 hours (a lot of it is baking time.) The other longest days are the two days before Turkey Day and Turkey Day. All other days are around an hour or less..
  • There will be a few days on the timeline that have grocery trips. I have your grocery list already done for you. All you need to do is go through your fridge or pantry and figure out what you may already have. If you already have that item, you can scratch if off the list..
  • There are things that you may not think of, and some things I forget about while getting ready for the big day. .
  • Sometimes on the holidays, things can go wrong or not quite as expected. I have put together a section for damage control in case anything unexpected happens. These are the most common, and I have added a few of my own possibilities. I also have some tips and tricks for everything that I can think of, so everything does go smooth sailing on the big day!.
  • This course does take some knowledge in the kitchen. You will need to know how to measure, operate an oven or stove, cut vegetables, and use some kitchen equipment..
