I haven’t been able to share nearly as many new Thanksgiving recipes with you as I’d have liked this month but on the plus side, all the ideas I never had time to try this year will give me a huge jump start next November 🙂 In the meantime, I thought it’d be fun to pull some of my favorite Thanksgiving dishes from the archives and highlight them today in case you’re still working to put your menu together. I also have 3 or 4 new recipes to share in the coming days, so stay tuned, especially if you’re still in need of dessert options!
Butterflied Turkey with Cranberry-Molasses Glaze
A great twist on a traditional roasted turkey
Chocolate Pecan Pie
Everything’s better with chocolate, including pecan pie!
Balsamic Roasted Brussels Sprouts
Super simple but so flavorful, converted me into a Brussels sprouts fan
Apple-Cranberry Pie
Apple pie with a tart twist
Stuffed Mushrooms
A delicious make-ahead appetizer idea
Cranberry-Nut Rolls
Soft and tender, studded with dried cranberries and toasted walnuts
Cornbread and Sausage Stuffing
A stuffing even I (known stuffing hater) enjoyed
Cauliflower Gratin
A creamy, cheesy side dish
Cranberry Shortbread Cake
My favorite cranberry dessert on the blog
Maple-Braised Butternut Squash with Fresh Thyme
I generally prefer mashing my squash, but this braised prep was fantastic
Caramel Apple Cheesecake Pie
Cheesecake + apple pie + caramel – need I say more?
Butternut Squash Soup
Smooth and creamy with an earthy flavor
Candied Sweet Potato Cupcakes (recipe available here)
Sure, they’re a great side, but sweet potatoes are an even better dessert in my book
Duchess Potatoes
A make-ahead potato side that’s not only delicious, but pretty too
Butternut Squash Risotto
Another great way to incorporate butternut squash into your meal
Crisp on the outside, tender inside, and tons of fun to pull apart as you eat
Cloverleaf Rolls
Lemon Bars
Glazed Grapefruit Cake
Orange Sherbet
Meyer Lemon Pound Cake
I bookmarked your stuffing last year so I could make it this time around. I caanot wait to try it!
This is the perfect post for me right now!! Will definitely come back to steal some of your recipes 🙂
Great round up! There are so many yummy recipes here 🙂
those sweet potato cupcakes look great!
I am still trying to put our recipe list together since it’s just going to be the 2 of us, and I am absolutely using a couple of these. Thanks for the ideas!
This all looks great; I want a little serving of everything!
You’re actually making me wish I was in control of what was cooked for dinner this year! Yummm
mmmmm chocolate pecan pie. i could SO go for some pie right now. too bad i’m at the office!
great roundup!
What a great round up Tracey. You are making me really hungry for Thanksgiving dinner! One of these days I’ll make a turkey myself…definitely something I need to cross off the to do list. Oh, and also try brussel sprouts. Somehow I’ve gone through my entire life without eating them.
Have a great Thanksgiving!
