This Week’s Menu #11 is perfect for a cold, winter November week. All recipes can be made ahead of time and require simple pantry staples. Let’s get cooking!

What to cook this week?
Looking at the weather forecast for this week, I think it is safe to say that most of us here in the US are getting the first taste of winter. This calls for soups, chowders, and chili! I packed this week’s menu with all that plus a bonus cookie recipe that will get us into the holiday baking mood.
