LTAF: Thanksgiving Meal Challenge – Part 1

We’re just days away from the belly bursting holiday and the economy has become a challenge for folks across the United States. The recent SNAP benefits debacle from the government shutdown didn’t help any. So let’s see if we agree on some frozen meal selections that can give you some of the flavors of T-bird day but done on a reduced budget.

We’ve got four groupings of frozen meals that all include turkey and at least one side. Now the meal portions vary as do the prices. We’ve got classics and some interesting mixed up versions to consider. What do we think about the potential of these if the wallet isn’t able to handle the Americana big family spread of the Normal Rockwell era?
