hey all!

i am officially starting the thanksgiving countdown…

6 days to thanksgiving

and even more important, the black friday countdown…

7 days to black friday + the beginning of cyber week!

so in honor of the upcoming holiday i thought i would share some friendsgiving/thanksgiving recipes for y’all to use and peruse! i know these posts are small but they are still so fun to write and pick out my favorites for you guys!

here we go!

#1: tyler florence’s potatoes

i read THIS BUZZFEED ARTICLE and apparently these potatoes are pretty dang good. you boil the potatoes in heavy cream and they come out super rich – i mean i am sure that you don’t need another rich item at thanksgiving but you know…

#2: caramelized onion and cornbread stuffing

i️ am a HUGE stuffing fan and i️ am also a HUGE caramelized onion fan so how could you go wrong with this stuffing?

#3: stuffed acorn squashr

ITS SQUASH STUFFED WITH STUFFING! who could ask for more!

#3: buttermilk  biscuits with maple and sea salt

via*

i️ usually don’t choose biscuits on thanksgiving because there are some many carbs going on anyway – stuffing and potatoes – but if i️ had these at thanksgiving i️ think i would need to have them!

#4: healthier green bean casserole

at thanksgiving my ultimate favorite dish is usually the green bean casserole, when my dad makes it is amazing because of the mushroom soup! this is a healthy version and it actually looks really good.

#5: roasted carrots with pecans and goat cheese

i️ love carrots and i️ love goat cheese, so these look awesome

#6: butternute squah risotto

via*

not sure if this fits on the thanksgiving table like the rest of them, but this dish looks super good!

#7: sweet potato, carmelized onion and goat cheese galette

via*

this would be an amazing side dish, instead of your typical sweet potatoes – so this is basically a savory pie!

#8: corn, buttermilk and chive popovers

via*

this would be a great appetizer – because it’s not out there and your oven is already on isn’t it!

#9: corn pudding with mushrooms and ham

via*

can’t really explain why i️ put this on here except it looks really good.

#10: carmelized onion, gruyere and bacon spread

via*
