Hey y’all! It’s me, Brenda from Meal Planning Magic. You’re receiving this email newsletter because you signed up--maybe a while ago--to receive an extra weekly email where I share a little bit about meal planning, seasonal content I think you might enjoy and a little bit more about me.

Happy Wednesday everyone! Remember, you can now expect an email every Wednesday morning at 6:00 am CST for a little Midweek Meal Planning Magic. So here you go!

I just got back from a short cruise to the Bahamas to celebrate our anniversary so I'm all relaxed and ready for the holiday this week! It was nice to get away but I'm also looking forward to celebrating Thanksgiving later this week! We alternate traveling to family with staying closer to home to celebrate with the other side of our family. Someone else is in charge of the turkey and I'm usually in charge of the pies! I wish you all a great Thanksgiving and thank you ALL for being fans of Meal Planning Magic!

Read on to find some weekly inspiration!

If you'll have leftovers from this week's Thanksgiving feast, you might want to check out my Thanksgiving Leftover Pie recipe! I promise it's not as strange as it sounds! My family actually really loves this recipe. If you love pot pies, then this combines everything you love about Thanksgiving into an easy pot pie. Check out the recipe here.
