A Feast for Pilgrims and Poets

If you've never prepared a Thanksgiving dinner and don't know where to begin then I have good news - you've reached the right place on the internet!

The starter menu featured here contains recipes for 20+ delicious Thanksgiving dishes. Peruse the menu and find a few appetizers, sides, and desserts that interest you - none are terribly difficult to make. Once you've chosen them then the bulk of the decision-making is complete. Last step is to pick the star of the show: turkey, ham, or beef?

With your selections made, you'll need to plan a shopping trip. In Medal Menu you can easily create a grocery list by check-marking the recipes from the Thanksgiving menu - as you do so individual ingredients from each recipe will be added to a view which you can use as your guide while in the store.

Now all that's left is to cook!

I'm thankful you've stopped by to read this post - I hope your Thanksgiving feast is as smooth as the gravy.

Enjoy!
