Ever wondered what everyone else is cooking for Thanksgiving? We did and decided to dig in and see what’s being cooked in kitchens all over America.
What’s on the menu? Turkey, desserts, and popular sides (mac and cheese, mashed potatoes, stuffing/dressing) dominated the list. No surprise there!
One emerging trend is creative and regional takes on traditional Thanksgiving meals. These are growing in popularity. Recipes like Southern baked mac and cheese, slow cooker turkey breast, and loaded mashed potato cakes all made the list. This trend should continue throughout the 2018 holiday season.
So, you want to know what made the list? We won’t keep you waiting anymore. Here are the Most Popular Thanksgiving Recipes for 2018 from our home cooks and pinched recipes.
