Delicious + Healthy Thanksgiving Recipes to Make from side dishes to breakfast and brunch ideas to dreamy desserts! Gluten-free, paleo and plant-based options too.

Does anyone else feel like the holidays start way earlier every single year? Now don’t get me wrong – I love the holiday season so much. But wow we have been in full on Thanksgiving ad holiday cookie mode over here since like August and it is crazy town.

We are still at the point in our lives where we go to either of our parent’s for Thanksgiving each year. But with the new house and our move coming up *so* soon – who knows.. maybe next year we will do the full dinner. For this year we are going to my parents house and we are actually bringing a handful of the recipes below PLUS our Butcher Box turkey!! Which you can get FOR FREE! With this link when you order.
