Salad: Endive and Pear with Cranberry Vinaigrette
This is the seasonal salad if you’re looking to impress all of your guests from the start of the meal; from juicy pears to tart cranberry and bitter endives, balanced by a light touch of maple syrup, you’ll love this for Thanksgiving, and crave it all year round. Cut the Parmesan to make it vegan & gluten-free (but keep it if you don’t have vegan guests, it adds a gorgeous creaminess).
The Main: Dry-Brined Turkey
It’s always going to be turkey, for us–and take our word for it when we say this is the best prep method we know. Add Roasted Garlic Gravy for a special touch.
The Veg: Lemon & Almond Green Beans
It’s not Thanksgiving without green beans, and the addition of zesty lemon and slivered almonds puts these at the top of our list, year after year.
The Veg: Buttered Brussels Sprouts
These nutty, garlicky Brussels sprouts are the most delicious way to enjoy this once-dreaded (how?!), now-beloved vegetable.
The Potato Dishes: Roasted Sweet Potatoes with Garlicky Yogurt and Creamy Potato Gratin
I mean, need we say more? The roasted sweet potatoes with garlicky yogurt and creamy potato gratin are even better than they sound. You’ll be fighting friends and relatives for the final bite of each.
The Pie: Pumpkin Pie with Maple Cream
Pumpkin is our favorite Thanksgiving pie (and one of our favorite fall flavors, for that matter). Add maple cream and this heads straight to the top of our world’s best desserts pantheon.
The Stuffing: Classic Herbed Stuffing
Classic for a reason, our herbed stuffing is simple, but delicious, and we look forward to it every year. Once you’ve made it, we promise you will too.
