I like that idea in the pic you included - everything in one pan! but back to the question - - - - - - -

my wife's cranberry orange relish- I have to restrain myself since (too many) cranberries frequently contribute utensils to my gout.

She also make great nádivka [ nah DEEF kah ] ( Bohemian stuffing )

One of the most over-rated is green beans with FrenchFried onion rings- just a gimmick to sell those greasy things.

Mashed potatoes, stuffing and gravy.
Also, my wife makes the best baked sweet potato dish using fresh sweet potatoes, butter and brown sugar. And her cranberry dressing is to die for.

I can do without the green bean casserole. And I never had mac and cheese for Thanksgiving.

Oh, I'm such a stuffing girl! But I think I gained 5 lbs just from thinking about it. 😳

One of the best Thanksgiving side dishes has to be creamy, velvety mashed potatoes. They pair beautifully with the rich gravy from the turkey, adding a comforting texture to the plate. I remember the first time I made mashed potatoes using smoked garlic—a trick I picked up from a small countryside restaurant. They added a unique, robust flavor that truly elevated the dish. The smoky aroma blended seamlessly with the creamy potatoes, offering a delightful twist on the traditional recipe. 🍂🦃

Mashed potatoes and gravy and stuffing are not optional.  Fresh cranberry sauce with apple and walnuts is great.  Veggies? Just about anything.

You've got to have cheesy Scalloped Potatoes.

Alright, slice your potatoes and boil them while you make a sauce from starch, milk, and good old American Cheese from a block. Saute Onions and Green Onions to go with it.
