10 Thanksgiving Recipes to Try This Year


Thanksgiving is near, which means families and friends across the nation will gather to kick off the holiday season with a feast and some football. Here are 10 of our favorite Thanksgiving recipes. After trying these, a nap will be inevitable. Dine and then recline in your favorite recliner from H3 this Thanksgiving!


1. Hot Spinach Dip 
Somewhere between the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade and a backyard game of football, your guests are likely to get hungry waiting on that turkey to roast to perfection. Satisfy their appetite with this hot spinach dip from Martha Stewart. The best part—most of this recipe can be assembled up to three days in advance so you don’t have to waste valuable Turkey Day time making an appetizer.


2. Good Eats Roast Turkey
It’s not called Turkey Day for no reason—the turkey is the star of the Thanksgiving feast (and every other meal for the following 3 days). You may have perfected your turkey technique, but if you haven’t, Alton Brown's Good Eats roast turkey recipe is a must-try.



3. Stuffing and Gravy (with gluten-free option)
Another Thanksgiving staple is the stuffing and gravy, of course. This recipe from King Arthur Flour can be made gluten-free with one simple substitution!


4. Can-Free Green Bean Casserole
A Thanksgiving feast without homemade side dishes is no feast at all. Try this can-free recipe from the Talking Kitchen for the holiday classic, green bean casserole.
5. Creamy Parmesan Garlic Mashed Potatoes
Mashed potatoes are another staple, but these are anything but ordinary. Set this common side dish apart with this recipe for creamy parmesan garlic mashed potatoes from Simply Scratch.

6. Honey Pumpkin Biscuits
Festive 52’s honey pumpkin biscuits are a perfect way to add another festive touch to your Thanksgiving menu this year.
7. Spiced Cranberry Sauce
Put some color, fragrance and most importantly, flavor, on the table with this spiced cranberry sauce recipe from Taste of Home!
8. Brown Sugar Pumpkin Pie with Toasted Pecan Crust
That's a mouthful! A feast would not be complete without dessert. Is there a more traditional Thanksgiving dessert than pumpkin pie? Try this brown sugar pumpkin pie recipe from Williams Sonoma for a delicious spin on a classic. The toasted pecan crust is just perfect!
9. Sweet Potato Cake with Marshmallow Frosting
A unique and festive dessert to try is Smitten Kitchen’s sweet potato cake with marshmallow frosting. Those marshmallow dollops are mouthwatering!
10. Mini Chocolate Pumpkin Bundt Cake
Last but not least is this mini chocolate pumpkin bundt cake recipe from the Chic for all you chocolate lovers out there. These mini bundt cakes are cute, Thanksgiving-themed, and chocolate. What’s not to love?

Don’t forget to let us know in the comments if you plan on adding one (or all) of these to your Thanksgiving spread this year. May your Thanksgiving be filled with good food and many memories!
