HealthyEatsGirl: Thanksgiving Recipe Roundup

So I usually post recipes that are successful on my blog after thanksgiving is over - its nice since I know I am giving out good recipes that work for people, families, and taste good. I haven't ever posted a recipe I haven't made. But it doesn't help those who are looking for ideas to make themselves.... I have been scouring blogs and cookbooks coming up with new ideas myself. There are so many fun ideas this year! I love the emphasis I am seeing of eating better, cleaner :) So I grouped things into two categories... things I have made the last several years that have worked, and my menu for this year including some new recipes I haven't ever tried.

#1 Here's my "go to" Thanksgiving menu.

These dishes have been made over and over and over again. The dip made its first appearance last year and was yummy and easy. Appetizers are great if you are having people over early to watch one of the 3 football games.

1. Fruited Cranberry Sauce
2. Super delicious light fluffy rolls (make extra of these if you are having a small group over - they freeze wonderfully & if you make the extras bigger than all the rest - they are the perfect hamburger buns.
