8 Easy and Delicious Thanksgiving Recipes

I’m all about keeping things easy especially during the holidays. Today I’m sharing 8 Easy and Delicious Thanksgiving Recipes.

This Thanksgiving is going to be different for so many of us. Many families aren’t traveling and staying at home this year. Hopefully, next year we can all have more friends, family, and travel. With this new type of Thanksgiving it might be fun to experiment in the kitchen. I thought it would be a good idea to share some fun and easy recipes that we love which are also perfect for the holiday.

Pineapple Berry Relish

This relish is a big hit in our house. My dad always made this every year. It was even served at our family restaurant for Thanksgiving. It’s a wonderful relish that pairs with turkey and other roasted meats. It’s an easy “throw together recipe”. I remember sneaking this with my dad – we’d just eat bowls of it!

Easy Pumpkin Bread

Love pumpkin? If so, this pumpkin bread is just for you! Enjoy it with some coffee or tea. Would also be lovely as dessert after you devour turkey.

Homemade Sourdough Bread

Speaking of bread, why not make some sourdough?!? This recipe makes two loaves – perfect to enjoy those open faced turkey sandwiches Thursday night or on Black Friday. We love to add cheese in our sourdough as a surprise ingredient. If you’re planning on baking some you’ll need some sourdough starter.

Goat Cheese Stuffed Figs

That bread (above) goes so well with these goat cheese stuffed figs wrapped in bacon. Only three ingredients in this easy app! I ate far too many of them when I took photos. The salty bacon and caramelized figs taste so decadent, especially when filled with creamy goat cheese.

Easy Lobster Salad Appetizer

This was a favorite recipe over the warm summer months, but it works equally well for Thanksgiving or Christmas appetizers. This would also be lovely for a New Year’s Eve celebration paired with prosecco or champagne. My secret for making it extra-easy: buying lobster meat that’s already cooked!

Fall Cocktails

Thanksgiving is a great time to experiment with a few cocktails. Fall sangria is fun and festive with apples and oranges.

While Luke’s Old Fashioned is an old favorite! He loves using real Maraschino cherries. The Old Fashioned below has wiskey stones:

Delicious Pumpkin Dip

Hate making pie crust? Why not forget about the crust and enjoy your pumpkin another way? This pumpkin dip only takes a few minutes to make! It’s creamy and delicious. Serve it with apple slices, gingersnaps, or spread on warm bread or toast. The perfect way to add some pumpkin spice to your holiday. Great with leftovers, too!

Grown Up Apple Crumble

A splash of Calvados gives this apple crumble a grown up twist. This recipe is soooo delicious and decadent.  The caramel-like filling has so much flavor and is so rich.  It is a comfort dish for sure and perfect in place of the usual apple pie.

I hope this gave you a few ideas for Thanksgiving. Can’t wait to hear if you try out any of these recipes! If you do, let me know.
