Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving is a time for gathering, gratitude, and, of course, FOOD! Here in Canada, we celebrate on the second Monday of October, while in the United States, it falls on the fourth Thursday of November. No matter when you celebrate, with this collection of all of my favorite Thanksgiving dishes, your next holiday feast will be unforgettable.

You’ll find nostalgic classic side dishes like peas and carrots, lightened-up takes on traditional favorites such as mashed potatoes & cauliflower and mashed carrots, and even unique Thanksgiving recipes you may have never considered, like braised German red cabbage for a flavorful festive feast!
