Thanksgiving is next week, and I’ve reached the point where I’m done cooking for the holiday—so I decided to gather all my Thanksgiving-related recipes in one place. Below you’ll find the dishes I’d serve on my own table, organized by breakfast, side dishes, and desserts. I’ve also listed a few other blogs with great fall recipes that could complement your Thanksgiving menu.
Before the recipes, here are a few things I’m thankful for this year. Feel free to share yours in the comments.
- Every reader who has visited the blog, laughed at my attempts at humor, or tried a recipe. This site keeps going because of your support—thank you.
- My parents, who always show up and support me, even when they don’t love my language.
- Laura and Sergio. Even though Sergio is away until February, he’s one of the best people I know.
- My Mountain Hardwear jacket—without it I wouldn’t enjoy living in Colorado as much.
- Anything chocolate-related.
- Coconut butter.
- Attractive people—rare, but appreciated. (Okay, maybe that one was wishful thinking.)
- Kombucha.
- Lululemon spandex.
- My Mac—reliable, helpful, and always by my side.
Ten felt right, even if it was a lot. Now, on to the food.
