The Organized Life, November Paint Bucket
October has been flying by,
such a beautiful month in so many places!
After tomorrow’s Halloween fun,
it will be time to turn our thoughts
to the November and December holidays
For November’s recipe bucket list,
I am featuring recipes that have traditional Thanksgiving
and Fall ingredients,
prepared in an updated way~
You can still enjoy your traditional favorites on the special days,
but also enjoy the flavors in different ways all month long!
The flavor/theme of the month is Thanksgiving Twists
You can see photos of these recipes in the November section
of my Monthly Paint Bucket here

The flavor of the month was Pumpkin
I used leftover taco meat and fixings
to make a delicious game day party food
I shared ideas for a no cook charcuterie idea in letter trays
which was a big hit at a recent party
Butter boards are trending right now
so I made individual Pumpkin Pecan Butter Boards
and set a Fall table
Hoisin Chicken is so easy to make,
only 3 ingredients and you can grill it
or make it in a slow cooker
I adapted Cheesy Sausage Potato Soup from Plain Chicken
into Slow Cooker Sausage, Corn & Potato Soup
Pumpkin & Gouda Pizza from Dishing Out Health inspired
Pumpkin Alfredo Pizza with Bacon & Gruyère
Pumpkin Pie Crescents from Spend with Pennies
turned into Maple Glazed Pumpkin Walnut Rolls
