Hey Friends! How’s it goin?
American Thanksgiving coming up this week and I’ve been seeing so many awesome recipes floating around my various social media feeds for the last couple weeks. I have to admit that I was a little jealous that I hadn’t seen most of those recipes before Canadian Thanksgiving back in October and now the opportunity to make them was gone.
But then I remembered that I can do whatever the hell I want in my kitchen. Obviously, I’m not planning to run out and buy and make a bird, since I don’t want to be eating turkey until February, but there’s nothing stopping me from making some Thanksgiving-esque meals this week.
So, I started putting together a list of all the Thanksgiving goodies I wanted to try and, as always, it got out of hand pretty quickly. There’s no way I’m going to make and eat all 31 of these recipes this week, but if you’ve still got room on your Thanksgiving menu, I’ve got lots of options for ya, including breakfast.
Oh, and all of these can be pulled together in under an hour, so you can skip the hours of prep and get down to the business of eating.

Oh hello, I love Thanksgiving recipe roundups! 😀 The only real issue is…how do I find time to make it all!? I’m having issues choosing, but having options is always nice! 😛
I’m not sure if you do these, but I’m nominating you for the Liebster Award! More info can be found here!: :]

haha glad you lucked out on not cooking this year Carla. Hope you had a great Thanksgiving 😀
It’s torture, eh? All the delicious Thanksgiving food floating around the web these days. Totally not fair that we had to have our Thanksgiving all the way back in October… and that American Thanksgiving is so much bigger than Canadian. But you’re right — at least we can enjoy the food too 😉
Amanda @ .running with spoons.com recently posted…. fruit and seed granola bars .
I know! There were so many things on this list I wish I had made for Thanksgiving last month. It’s not like I starved, but I feel so deprived haha
I am so last-minute this year so this compilation of recipes is exactly what I need! Thanks for the inspiration!

That’s actually the recipe that made me want to write this post! LOL It was just too good not to share.
I guess I consider a lot of Thanksgiving food “seasonal” for the holidays. So I continue to make these types of recipes!

Thanks for including my pumpkin pie muffins. That reminds me i should really make another batch 🙂
This is a great collection! I had Thanksgiving early- so I am done cooking these things for a while! Over here, we don’t have time off for Thanksgiving, and I actually have to work late on Thursday 🙁
