The holidays are coming, and as we still wrestle with inflated prices, here are a few tips that can help you cut back on spending for meals and baking!

1 - Keep it Simple: Go potluck style. You prepare the protein and have guests bring the sides and desserts.
2 - Avoid Trends: Trends like charcuterie/butter/board are lavish and often require multiple ingredients, which can be expensive.
3 - Smaller Portions: We tend to overindulge during Thanksgiving. Offering smaller portions cuts back on this, cost, and waste.
4 - Swap Proteins: Turkey is the tradition, but it can be expensive, consider an alternative like chicken. More bang for your cluck. Kidding. Terrible joke.
