Mushroom and Bok Choy Stuffed Turkey Cutlets

Thanksgiving is next week and it's definitely time to nail down your menu for the big day!  One item that is a must have on the table is turkey, which sometimes can be a little intimidating when you are dealing with the whole bird!  That's why I created a recipe that anyone can make using turkey breast cutlets!  Not only is this recipe easier and less time consuming than cooking a whole turkey, but it's also a fun new take on the main course that your whole family will love!  My mushroom and bok choy stuffed turkey cutlets are the perfect addition to your Thanksgiving menu and I can't wait for you to make them!

Apple, Kale, and Pomegranate Salad with Apple Cider Vinaigrette

It's official we are in countdown mode until Thanksgiving and I am planning the last of my menu as we speak!  Of course there will be turkey, sweet potatoes, and other indulgent foods so I always like to balance those dishes out with a few lighter sides as well!  I'm all about a little balance at the table so I can feel good about indulging on a few of my favorites!  My apple, kale, and pomegranate salad with apple cider vinaigrette is the perfect salad to add to your Thanksgiving menu this year and everyone will love it!
