November has a way of pulling people back indoors. The clocks fall back on Sunday, November 1, and suddenly it’s dark when most folks leave work. Football is on every weekend. Grocery lists fill up with sweet potatoes and stuffing mix. Here are some recipe ideas to take you through the month with an interesting and healthy twist!
Tuesday, November 17th is Homemade Bread Day.
Here we feature a recipe for Heart Healthy Zucchini Bread
National Food Days for November
Recipes are a great way to celebrate the fall season. It’s Sweet Potato Month, and the calendar marks it on November 5 with a recipe video for heart healthy sweet potato pie. On November 20, Thanksgiving sides take center stage with a lighter green bean casserole. And on November 27, there’s an easy leftover turkey casserole for the day after.
By the fourth Thursday, families are crowded around the table for Thanksgiving.
