For a recipe fiend like myself, the menu planning portion of Thanksgiving is one of my favorite aspects of the holiday. And even though I usually stick to the same classic dishes year after year, I love bookmarking (or pinning) different recipes and telling myself that one day I’ll give them a shot.
I spent my morning finalizing this year’s Thanksgiving menu, and I wanted to share some of the recipes that I found most appealing, just in case you’re in need of some inspiration.
