Mom with a Plan

Thanksgiving Recap 2020!

Thanksgiving 2020 was a success!! The turkey came out perfect, the side dishes were delicious, and being with family was the BEST! I’m feeling extra thankful this year for our blessings and our time spent with each other.

The night before Thanksgiving I prepared a breakfast casserole to enjoy in the morning and hold us over until the feast.

I choose one with bacon because Luke doesn’t like sausage and I gotta say it was SO good! My boys went back for seconds and we will definitely make it again.

Bacon & Gouda Croissant Casserole

Making a breakfast casserole works out so nicely for when you have guests staying with you or for a busy holiday morning when you won’t have time to cook.

Here’s the recipe: (serves 6-8 people)

Directions:

We headed over to my parent’s home at 4 pm to enjoy Thanksgiving!

My parents backyard has such a beautiful landscape.

We had our friend Chris stay with us for a couple of days. His family lives out of state and we couldn’t have him be alone for the holiday and it was so nice to have him with us for Jason’s birthday too.

My brother’s family joined us and so did my Aunt Diane, my cousin Whitney and her son Jodey.

My mom had the tables decorated SO cute and festive!

I mean look at these cute turkey name cardholders…can you tell where my passion for decorating came from?!?!

Chris got in on the action too! You can see Tuffy down there looking for food, LOL

I made a vegetable side dish and it was delicious! You could make this for Christmas dinner too, it would go great with ham. It was definitely a crowd pleaser!
