It’s hard to believe we’re only a few days away from Thanksgiving! We’ll be with my family for the holiday, and I couldn’t be more excited. We usually make the same recipes that we have loved for years (my mom is the best cook!) and I look forward to them every fall. We say each year that we might “branch out” and make some new recipes, but we have such a hard time giving up our tried and true dishes! Anyone else?
*However,* I DO think it’s so much fun to look at recipe inspiration – I’m embarrassed to admit that it is probably my favorite activity to spend my free time on – ha! And it’s especially fun to look at side ideas for Thanksgiving. Today, I’m pulling from one of my Pinterest boards to share 8 ideas for elevated Thanksgiving side dishes! You could of course make these for the actual holiday, but they’re also great ideas for Friendsgiving, and will work for Christmas dinner, too!
