Thanksgiving Cooking Help from Average Jane

A few years ago, I gathered all of my favorite Thanksgiving recipes into a single PDF and shared it with my readers. This year I have updated the booklet, fixed the most egregious typos, changed the format, and added an introduction. If you could use a basic Thanksgiving dinner how-to with a few little extras, please feel free to download it and use whatever recipes would be handiest for you.

Here's the download link: Average Jane's Favorite Thanksgiving Recipes

The booklet contains scratch recipes for two appetizers, the turkey and dressing, green bean casserole (fancy or standard), cranberry sauce, dinner rolls, mashed potatoes and gravy, pumpkin pie, and pumpkin cake roll with cream cheese filling. Many of these recipes are already on the blog, but I've filled in the gaps with other information you'll need to make a complete dinner.

I'm sharing the booklet under the Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial-No Derivative Works license, which means you are free to share it as long as you attribute it to me (I'd prefer a link back) and do not sell or alter it in any way.

I'll be making Thanksgiving dinner at my house this year and I'll probably make pretty much all of these recipes. I've already purchased the turkey and I'm looking forward to getting together with one of my friends tomorrow night to make pumpkin cake rolls.

I'm going to try the cranberry sauce. I'll let you know how it turns out.

For the rest of my life, I will think of YOU on Thanksgiving and Christmas as I make cranberry sauce from scratch. I love that recipe so much and the lovely smells it produces in my house really put me in a holiday spirit just as I am on the brink of stressing out. It brings me back DOWN to earth. Thank you, thank you!
