Happy Holidays! We are celebrating Christmas this week and I’m getting ready to cook a few of our traditional recipes. Can’t wait to see all your meal plans for the week, too!

MONDAY:
– Homemade Honey Goat Cheese Pizza

TUESDAY:
– Chinese Food Takeout (Maynard Family Christmas Eve Tradition)

WEDNESDAY:
– Swedish Meatballs with boiled red potatoes and lingonberry jam (Wallin Family Christmas Eve Tradition, but on Christmas Day!): I will be using GF panko bread crumbs for a small batch for myself…last year I used GF breadcrumbs and the meatballs were definitely not as good as the original made with real bread crumbs, so I’m going to try a different brand for this year’s GF batch. Hoping they will be better than last year, crossing fingers!
– Swedish Cardamom Bread (both in bun form and braided loaves…I’m also going to try to create a Gluten Free version of the buns, wish me luck!)

THURSDAY:

FRIDAY:
– Leftovers

SATURDAY:
