Okay, Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday. Was that really a secret before now? Heck no, for those of you who know me/read my blog/follow me.

In fact, I think EVERY holiday on the calendar should call for a Thanksgiving-style feast, complete with at least 2 kinds of stuffing (my favorite), candied sweet potatoes, and, well, all the amazing recipes I’m about to share with you right now 🙂

Because we all know that Thanksgiving means we eat all day, start to finish, I’m linking you to everything from appetizers and “waiting snacks”, to main dishes (turkey!), TONS of delicious side dishes (all about those sides) and the best desserts you’ll have all year (all paleo!)

Ready to get started?! I can hardly wait!

About Michele

More than a little into running and paleo recipes (yoga now too!) but I'm not here to rain on your grains (or anything else) so come along for the ride! I do a little too much of everything (except cleaning), and I enjoy laughing at myself. As long as I'm the one making the jokes, that is. Just kidding. So bring me your angst, your appetite and your frying pan and climb aboard!

    I was almost crying when I found this! Thank you. This is our first Thanksgiving of being GF, DF, and refined SF. I’m a pretty creative cook but this was just making me sad. If it was not a health issue we would just cheat but being sick was not a good option. Thank you!
