A Simply Delicious Thanksgiving Menu

By Kelly · Leave a Comment

Thanksgiving is a special celebration that most certainly deserves a special menu!

Made with wholesome real food ingredients, each of these family-friendly recipes represents the simple, traditional flavors of Thanksgiving.

In the quest to serve up a memorable meal, often keeping it simple is best. And that’s what I love about the following recipes. Made with wholesome real food ingredients, each represents the simple, traditional flavors of Thanksgiving. Nothing super fancy or difficult, just delicious family-style dining at its best!

Herb Stuffed Roasted Spatchcock Turkey

Made with wholesome real food ingredients, each of these family-friendly recipes represents the simple, traditional flavors of Thanksgiving.

I’ve made a lot of roast turkeys throughout the years, but this Herb Stuffed Roasted Spatchcock Turkey (also shown sliced above) is by far my newfound favorite because it’s a quick, easy and foolproof method for achieving a fantastically juicy and flavorful bird!

The Ultimate Grain-Free Herb Seasoned Stuffing

Made with wholesome real food ingredients, each of these family-friendly recipes represents the simple, traditional flavors of Thanksgiving.

I may be a bit bias here, but this simple, yet savory Herb Seasoned Grain-Free Stuffing is my absolute favorite complement to a perfectly roasted bird. This no-bread wonder tastes so much like the real deal, I jokingly call it the “I can’t believe it’s not stuffing, stuffing” because the taste and texture is absolutely amazing!

Creamy Dreamy Mashed Potatoes

Made with wholesome real food ingredients, each of these family-friendly recipes represents the simple, traditional flavors of Thanksgiving.

My dear friend Jessica knows how it’s done, which is why her simple, yet delicious recipes are a frequent in my free weekly meal plans. And her recipe for Creamy Mashed Potatoes is definitely a keeper that will be frequenting our family table on Thanksgiving Day and beyond!

(P.S. If you’re into smothering your mashed potatoes with gravy {and who isn’t?!}, my sweet friend Heather at Mommypotamus has simple and tasty method for making Classic Turkey Gravy using the perfect grain-free thickening agent – grassfed gelatin!) 

Lemon Garlic Green Beans

Made with wholesome real food ingredients, each of these family-friendly recipes represents the simple, traditional flavors of Thanksgiving.

A simple, yet delicious side, Lemon Garlic Green Beans have been a family tradition since I was a wee-one! Please note: When serving these aromatic green beans as part of a Thanksgiving meal, I reduce the garlic to just one clove. That way, it doesn’t overpower the other savory flavors on the plate.

Perfect Pumpkin Pie

Made with wholesome real food ingredients, each of these family-friendly recipes represents the simple, traditional flavors of Thanksgiving.

It wouldn’t be Thanksgiving without pumpkin pie! And guess what, I have a secret for you … You don’t have to put up with over-baked grain-free pie crusts to enjoy classic desserts like pumpkin pie! I’ve got a simple method for making perfectly scrumptious pumpkin pie with a light flaky grain-free crust. What’s the secret? Pop over to my Perfect Pumpkin Pie recipe to get the delicious details!

Happy Thanksgiving from our home to yours!
As we gather together with our families this holiday season, may our hearts be centered on bringing glory to the One from whom we’ve received abundant patience, mercy, grace and love!

Wishing you and your family a very blessed Thanksgiving, Kelly
