Thanksgiving Recipe Round-Up

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
