10 Essential Thanksgiving Dishes

Everyone knows that when Thanksgiving comes around there is a lot of food and treats, but sometimes deciding what food to make can get overwhelming! Here’s a list of 10 great Thanksgiving dishes that are guaranteed to make everyone say “thank you” while rubbing their stomachs with satisfaction.

1. Corn

Creamed corn, corn on the cobb, corn salad, corn pudding. Corn is a classic, as it was essential to the very First Thanksgiving. If you don’t want to ruin a delicious tradition, make sure you have some type of corn on your Thanksgiving plate.

2. Macaroni and Cheese

Mac and cheese is the perfect side item all year long, meaning it obviously has a place on the Thanksgiving table. Move aside Easy Mac, make sure this it is extra cheesy and oven baked! You will definitely want to make sure this is among your lineup of Thanksgiving dishes!

3. Ham

For those who want to go against the “classic Thanksgiving meal,” ham is the dish for you. While ham (especially honey baked ham) is great, make sure it’s not your only meat option.
