Top 10 Thanksgiving dinner foods

With Thanksgiving right around the corner, it’s a good time to start planning out your delicious Thanksgiving dinners. Thanksgiving is a day to give thanks for everything we have, and what better way to do it than surrounded by a feast of beautifully prepared food and with family and friends? We’ve decided to count down the top ten Thanksgiving dinner foods to help spark your cooking imagination as well as get you in the holiday mood!

Who can forget all the classic Thanksgiving foods? Baked turkey, sweet pies, and those delicious buttered rolls? We all have our own favorites, so see if yours are on the list! Maybe you’ll even cave and go grab a can of cranberry sauce from the grocery store a few weeks early. Or maybe you’ll end up dreaming of mashed potatoes tonight. Whatever will tide you over for the next few weeks!

If you include these top ten Thanksgiving foods in your Thanksgiving dinner, you’ll have a meal worth being thankful for—at least until next year!

10. Green bean casserole

Creamy, crunchy, green bean-y. How can you go wrong with green bean casserole? Thanksgiving would not be complete without this classic side dish.

9. Mac and cheese

Even though this is a meal that we enjoy year-round, macaroni and cheese is another perfect Thanksgiving side dish. It’s warm, cheesy, and incredibly homey, and it never fails to warm your stomach on a chilly Thanksgiving day.

8. Sweet potatoes

It doesn’t matter how you enjoy this classic Thanksgiving food. You can bake it, twice bake it, cut it into fries, mash it—whatever is the most delicious for you!

7. Dinner rolls

It just isn’t Thanksgiving without warm dinner rolls. You can make them on your own if you want to be really ambitious, but who can ever go wrong with those scrumptious Pillsbury dinner rolls that you can never seem to have just one of?

6. Stuffing

Now, stuffing isn’t for everyone (I know my dad hates it!) but it just makes a Thanksgiving meal complete. It’s one of those side dishes that you can’t seem to stop eating, for one reason or another. But the most important reason is that it is seriously tasty.

5. Gravy

Turkey would be dry and boring and mashed potatoes would be so bare without gravy! This dish is a Thanksgiving must. You can make it yourself or buy the ever-handy gravy packets from the grocery store.

4. Cranberry sauce

This stuff is so good that I eat it all year round. There’s always the cranberry sauce from a can, but it’s also easy to make on your own and it’s simply mouthwatering. It’s so good that I need to have it on Thanksgiving and Christmas.

3. Pumpkin pie

Fall just wouldn’t be complete without the classic pumpkin pie. The whole Thanksgiving meal could be a complete disaster and it would all be saved by a nice pumpkin pie.

2. Turkey

The Thanksgiving staple. These birds are usually the main dish of our Thanksgiving meals. If it’s not dry and overcooked, turkey is one of the best parts about Thanksgiving. It makes for some great leftovers, too.

1. Mashed potatoes

I don’t know about you, but my plate at Thanksgiving is always ninety percent mashed potatoes and ten percent everything else. Enjoy them plain or shake things up by making garlic parmesan mashed potatoes and your Thanksgiving meal will be both complete and completely delicious.
