Easy Thanksgiving Food Ideas

The best holiday of the year is Thanksgiving because it’s all about the people you love, good food, and sharing what matters most. I have lots of easy Thanksgiving food ideas including sides and lots of pie recipes.

My favorite Thanksgiving recipes: Momma’s Jumbo Dinner Rolls, Five Ingredient Sides for Thanksgiving (all healthy and easy!), and my favorite apple pie recipe that finishes off the meal so well.

A plate of creamy chicken and stuffing casserole, featuring chunks of chicken, sliced carrots, and celery, topped with a golden, crispy crust. The dish is presented on a white plate with a dark rim. Other food ingredients are blurred in the background.
