Thanksgiving Favorites

This year's Thanksgiving will definitely be different, so if you're new to preparing and hosting Thanksgiving, or you want to try a new recipe, these are some of my favorite Thanksgiving recipes. Most have been passed down through the generations and some are newer to our family.

Each of these recipes is tried-and-true and holds a special place in my heart. Some were passed down from my grandmother, my mother, my sister, friends, and some I have come up with and shared with family over the years.
