67 Best Thanksgiving Recipes for 2023
For just one day a year, we feast on roast turkey, jellied cranberries, and marshmallow-topped sweet potato casserole—dishes so synonymous with Thanksgiving, they earn the exclusive designation of Thanksgiving food. Preparing and hosting a literal feast is difficult enough without having to scour the web for Thanksgiving recipes, which is why we did that work on your behalf. Tragically, we can’t cook the turkey for you, but we can give you everything you need to craft the perfect Thanksgiving dinner menu.
You could stick with a vegetarian Thanksgiving menu and not worry about the turkey to begin with. But for some, the bird is a non-negotiable. This collection of our best Thanksgiving recipes includes quite a few turkey recipes, like Puerto Rican pavochon and BBQ-rubbed Smoked Turkey. If you want to do some light extracurricular reading, we’ve also got guides on how long to cook a turkey and how to carve that bird. But everyone knows the real highlight is the Thanksgiving side dishes: cornbread stuffing, light and fluffy dinner rolls (ideal for mopping up our best turkey gravy recipe), and lemony green beans that just might steal the show.
If you’re wondering what to sip and nosh on throughout the day, we’ve got some top-notch Thanksgiving cocktails and Thanksgiving appetizers. And if you’re pondering what you’ll be eating for breakfast the day after the holiday, there’s no better place to look than our favorite Thanksgiving desserts. As for the rest of the leftovers, our turkey leftover recipes promise much more than your average sandwich. Ready to dive in? Let’s go.
