  Closed.  Congrats to:  Rebekah and Donna!!!

With Thanksgiving right around the corner, many moms are planning their holiday dinners and utilizing various website for new recipes, cooking tips and ideas, etc. That being said, I would love to hear what you have found and will be trying out what tips or recipes have worked for you in the past, etc. Please leave a comment below in the comments section. I will then choose 2 lucky readers to win a check from Butterball for a FREE turkey.

Just last night I heard on the news that it will cost on average about $50 to feed a party of 10 this Thanksgiving. So, this FREE turkey (Valued at $15.00) would help reduce your meal planning costs dramatically!
 
Here are Some of My Favorite Tips and Resources From Butterball That Will Make My Thanksgiving Better This Year:

1) Not sure how big a turkey you need to feed your guests – Head on over to Butterball and use their calculator.

2) How long does it take to thaw a turkey – add the weight to the online calculator to find out the number of days prior to cooking, you need to refrigerate and thaw your bird.

3) Looking for ideas and recipes for leftover turkey, instead of just cold turkey sandwiches? Head on over to the Butterball website and click on their recipe section for ideas. I will be trying out their Wild Rice and Turkey soup recipe this year.

4) Want to keep kids and guests busy while you finish cooking the bird and prepping the side dishes? Check out some great party games thanks to Butterball, including Turkey Bowl, Wild Word Scramble and much more.

5) Do you know how to properly carve a turkey? My husband didn’t until he checked out the carving tutorial over at Butterball. Click here to read online, so you are prepared on the big day.

Don’t forget to have the Butterball Turkey Talk-Line 800 # on hand, in case you run into any trouble come Thanksgiving Day -- 1-800-288-8372. I had to call them last year when I had trouble thickening the gravy and giving it flavor. They were so helpful, and saved my Thanksgiving meal!!!!
WIN a Turkey Check ($15.00 Value):
 
It is easy to enter. Simply complete the 2 MANDATORY ENTRIES below, and then as many EXTRA ENTRIES as you like.

This giveaway will run for 1 week only, so that I have time to choose a winner and send the check to you, so that you can get it in time for Thanksgiving, so enter soon.
 
What is a Butterball Turkey Gift Check and How Do I Redeem It If I Win?: If you are one of the lucky 2 readers chosen, I will mail you a $15 check that is good towards the purchase of a Butterball Turkey. So, for instance, if you find a turkey for $15 or less, this check will cover the purchase in full, and you will walk out of the grocery store with a FREE turkey.
