In this post, you’ll find ideas for appetizers, main dishes, side dishes, desserts, and even little table favor treats that your Thanksgiving dinner guests can take home with them.
There are ideas here for pretty much everyone. Be sure to bookmark this or pin it on Pinterest so you can come back to it whenever you need to. Let’s dive in to all the great food ideas:

GET STARTED WITH THESE APPETIZERS:

This pistachio and black currant goat cheese log is out of this world delicious. Goes well with nearly any kind of crackers or on slices of French baguette.
Or if you’re looking for something a little more traditional, try this pecan bacon cheeseball.
If you love Brie, this baked brie with garlic and honey is a must try
MAIN DISHES:

Since my daughter doesn’t care for turkey, we love to serve this glazed ham. The picture doesn’t do it justice – it is the BEST ham we’ve ever had.
Don’t want ham? How about this Stuffed Beef Tenderloin with Portobello Mushrooms?
SIDE DISHES:

We don’t have a bird to stuff so we make these savory and delicious stuffing muffins!
This cranberry-apple stuffing uses a shortcut making it a super simple recipe.

This sweet potato salad is a family favourite. It’s a deliciously sweet yet healthier alternative to candied sweet potatoes.
Or go all in with this apple butternut squash casserole with bacon-pecan topping!

This broccoli-cauliflower salad is another family favourite!
My bacon wrapped green beans are even a hit with my future son-in-law who hates anything green and anything in the vegetable family!
Or give this delicious Brussels sprouts slaw a try.
And it just isn’t Thanksgiving for us without a yummy baked corn casserole.
If you’re looking for a potato dish, loaded mashed potato casserole or scalloped potatoes au gratin are great options.

7Up biscuits – yes I know it sounds kind of weird but trust me, we gobble these up!!
We served them in conjunction with our delicious cranberry butter board.
And our family just loves serving one of these fruity salads like this Cherry Fluff Salad that have us asking – is it a salad or is it dessert?
AND FOR DESSERT:

I don’t like pumpkin pie but this pumpkin roll is something my daughter and I both love. Friends start calling me in September and asking me when I can make one for them!

Maple and Cheddar Apple Pie. Need I say more?
Or maybe you’re more of a sweet potato bourbon pie person.
These turkey donuts are adorable.
And this Fall Pumpkin Buttercream Board is a fun interactive option.
