25 Thanksgiving Menu Ideas (or any holiday menu ideas) which are great for family dinners and food to feed a crowd.
When you plan your Thanksgiving menu – take food sensitivity and food choices into consideration. Think about the vegans, lactose-free, gluten-free, kids and picky eaters at your table. I find it helpful just to offer a variety of side dishes so that everyone can pick and choose their own food for their plates.
Counting down to Thanksgiving dinner
- Remember to defrost turkey (or double check to see it’s ok to cook from frozen)
- Do as much as you can before hand so that you can enjoy time with your guests rather than slaving in the kitchen
- Don’t hesitate to accept offers of guests bringing desserts or side dishes (more hands make light work!).
- Have the kids set the table (use the fancy dishes!)
