Around the Thanksgiving Table

I absolutely LOVE Thanksgiving dinner. I think about this meal all year long, and love to create new dishes to go alongside the traditional must-haves. In my mind, there are some things on the table that you just cant touch. You can improve & make small changes, but let’s face it- at the end of the day a turkey is still a turkey. Some are better (much better) than others, but it still tastes like turkey, you know?

I like to experiment with my dressing (stuffing), and make something new every year. I am not native to the south, and growing up we always had a traditional bread stuffing (think Stove Top), not corn bread. Bread stuffing is my absolute favorite dish to eat on Thanksgiving, and I know I’m not alone on this!

Once you know the basics, you really don’t need a recipe. For those of you needing some inspiration, here are some recipes to get you cookin’!

Basic, but delish
