After I slaved away for a few hours making my apple pie (non-nutritious version, sorry)…
…and my Mom (aka psycho Holiday baker) worked all day making her cute little pumpkin muffins (and stuffing, cranberry bread which got burnt, cranberry sauce, sweet potato casserole, and more)…
…my Dad made us salmon dinner after all that hard work 
He gets a lot of his recipe ides from Publix (a grocery store in the south east for those who don’t know).
Meal Idea: Publix has this section of the store called Apron’s Simple Meals where they display one of their recipe ideas already cooked for you to try. They also have tons of recipes that you can pick up, and then get the ingredients on the list. It makes it super duper easy for those who are new to cooking.
Most recipes are not for the health conscious, but they are not completely unhealthy either. If you know how to make recipe substitutions to create a healthier dish, Apron’s meal ideas could be a great idea to help you cook at home during the week.
For example, instead of white pasta, I convinced my Dad to get whole wheat pasta. Everything else in the recipe got my seal of healthy approval. Haha.
Anyway, have a Happy Thanksgiving!
