Thanksgiving food in its most classic form — stuffed and piled onto a plate — is all well and good, but it’s hard to deny the glory of leftovers. They just may be the reason we make all those side dishes in the first place. This year, we’re saving any bits of stuffing and turkey per usual, but turning to new ways of reinventing them.
These three recipes take the best parts of the Thanksgiving meal and roll them into something you might never have thought of before — making them crowd-pleasing and craveable enough that we’d really like to make them all year long.

For those first few days after Thanksgiving, you’re on top of the world. Every time you open the fridge you’ve got turkey, sides, appetizers, cheese, biscuits, and desserts. You don’t have to cook for a week!
Eventually the leftovers dwindle, your family threatens mutiny if one more meal has turkey in it, or the fridge starts to look like a picked-over supermarket before a storm.
Any of those things are signs it’s time to purge! Get in there and get that fridge ready for Christmas or holiday parties — because they’re right around the corner.

I adore the weekend after Thanksgiving. It’s long and replete with leftovers, and it’s also when I get seriously excited about planning Christmas gifts. This weekend is still early enough to start a project like DIY vanilla or cocktail bitters, or to make a big batch of caramels, but not too early to freeze some dough for homemade puppy treats.
If you need a few fresh ideas for homemade holiday gifts this year, take a look! We have 15 homemade gifts from the kitchen (or for the kitchen) that you can get a head start on this weekend.

As a food writer and sometime culinary student, I’m used to people having expectations of me around the holidays. They assume that I’ll cook (or at least eat) some fancy or unusual take on the classic dishes. And once upon a time, this was true.
In the early 2000s, just as I was beginning to get serious about my love of food and cooking, I was enamored of the new and the novel. Eschewing the holiday food traditions of my childhood — the only two times of the year when my mom spent any significant amount of time in the kitchen — I’d labor over turkey breast roulades with pancetta and chestnuts, Moroccan carrots, and roast cauliflower with feta and oregano.
But that all changed after my mom died.
