Did you try any new recipes this year for Thanksgiving? Share what you made and if it was a hit or miss.
New to me I made Savory appetizer cheesecake. It was okay but I prefer my cheeseball and it’s a lot easier so I’m going back to that. People were taking slices of it to home when packing up and it got compliments. Pineapple casserole. Hit. Would make again. Challah stuffing by smitten kitchen. Hit. Would make again. Cranberry salsa. I got the recipe from another poster on here. It was so good and definitely going on the repeat list. https://www.homemadeinterest.com/fresh-cranberry-salsa/ Butterscotch pie. Did not have a small enough pan to caramelize the sugar so it didn’t have a very strong butterscotch flavor. Would not make again unless I get a smaller pot. Recipe called for a medium pot but it was too big. |

We made the Four-Pie Sheet Pan. It tasted pretty good and was a fun project.

| Instead of stuffing, a bread pudding with egg as one of the ingredients. It's both savory and sweet. It was REALLY great! |
Do you have the recipe for this? Sounds interesting. |
What was this? |
Uhhh what is that??? Please tell me it’s not like 7-Up salad |
| We did Tinis macaroni and cheese recipe – IYKYK – TikTok – it was a hit. |

Made this instead of pecan pie, hit:

Have never heard of 7-up salad. I made this recipe for the pineapple casserole. I made it with kids in mind but the adults liked it too. https://www.southernliving.com/recipes/pineapple-casserole-recipe |
| Bourbon pecan pie. Big hit. The bourbon marries very well with the pecans and cuts the sweetness. |
| Pasta bake was a huge hit but took 6 hours with made from scratch meat sauce. |
| Make ahead gravy from Hailee Cailano or something from Instagram. I used her Thanksgiving broth recipe (using turkey wings). It was so, so good. |
| Made Smitten Kitchen baked sweet potatoes. 2 1/2 hours at 275 degrees then a few minutes under the broiler. First they were scrubbed, oiled and rolled in salt/pepper. They were a hit. No marshmallows nor pineapple in a sweet potato casserole which is what I grew up having. |
| Contrary to our family history, I did not brine our turkey this year. I just did a butter massage and used the Washington Post dried herbs recipe, plus some garlic powder, right before throwing in the oven - I thought it was good and lots easier. |
| Samin Nosrat’s buttermilk brined turkey and Smitten Kitchen mushroom casserole were both hits |
