November 2025 Menu Plan – Thankful for a Plan!

by Jayme on October 31, 2025

Enjoy this November meal plan with a printable calendar and easy, family-friendly recipes.

It’s officially holiday season! We’re knocking on the door of Thanksgiving and Christmas and New Year’s are right around the corner. The snow will start flying at some point.

Things are pretty calm in our house. No one is playing a Winter Sport. My 10-year-old had a knee surgery about 8 weeks ago and is coming off of crutches. Life is good and calm and I’m all for it!

Even though it’s calm and quiet, I’ll still make sure I’ll keep menu planning. Why introduce 5:00 panic into our lives when dinner rolls around and I don’t have a plan?!? No one needs that. Plan with me! Whether you use this one or one you make yourself, a menu plan will bring you more peace in the kitchen. Want a menu plan that’s even more simple than this one? AND includes a shopping list? Try this one: ‘Incredibly Easy 5-Ingredient Meal Plan and Cookbook’ available on Amazon!
