After ten+ years of blogging (and 30+ years of life), we’ve tried hundreds of Thanksgiving recipes and desserts! Below, is our All-Star Dream Team collection of recipes.

To make this menu more helpful for you, I’ve included symbols next to each recipe title indicating whether they are:

  • (MA) Make Ahead Friendly,
  • (GF) Gluten Free, or
  • (V) Vegetarian.

Enjoy our favorites, and please share your own in the comments! We’re always looking for a plucky challenger to earn a spot on the list!
