Thanksgiving Sides - Just in Time
It’s time to start thinking about Thanksgiving
It’s hard to ignore the fact that the holidays are just around the corner. The markets already have displays showcasing all the staples we need to cook - flour, stuffing mix, yams, cranberry sauce, and marshmallows, to name a few. However, we are focusing on the best part of the Thanksgiving feast - the sides! We hope you find something to love.
Cousins Travis and Ryan Croxton of the Rappahannock Oyster Co. include this show-stopper yam dish on their Thanksgiving table.
“There is one day that is ours. Thanksgiving Day is the one day that is purely American.”
Easy Cranberry Brie Bites by The Country Cook are a snap to make and they are so good. This recipe can be easily be made gluten-free or you can use puff pastry for a lighter texture. Make a sample batch today to enjoy.
Make-Ahead Mashed Potatoes are on my menu this year because they are simple, delicious, and can be made ahead. There are only a few ingredients in this Bon-Appetit tested recipe. Don’t skimp on the butter.
Don’t forget the vegans and vegetarians
This Winter Happiness Salad by Feasting at Home is hearty, loaded with so many fresh ingredients, and can be made ahead.
