How to Cook Thanksgiving Dinner From Start to Finish | Allrecipes

[@allrecipes]

What's your favorite Thanksgiving dish?

[@hannahc1232]

Can I use Prosecco instead of champagne for the turkey?

[@bonniepwtf]

My favorite has always been the stuffing/dressing. I'm also team jellied canned cranberries. 😁 Fantastic job, love this video.

[@uprite88]

You're quite the Dish! Learned the hard way thinking that I could thaw out a big bird overnight. It was a delightful video as you pranced around the kitchen with your charm and smile. I bet it would be partying with ya! Happy Thanksgiving.

[@shannonwhite7605]

Dressing & Squash Casserole... oh, and Cherry Lush dessert!😁

[@conniecrews8462]

Dressing

[@jules8910]

The main thing I'd like to say, is take time to appreciate the fact you HAVE family and friends to cook for and gather with! All of our "gatherings " around my mom's big dining table are now in memories only. You appreciate them, but don't actually realize that in one year you could lose members of your family and that gathering HOME of 50 years is now suddenly someone else's home. Don't squabble or complain .....its truly a BLESSING. ❤❤❤

[@pegeggeggleston4315]

Yes, as we get older things change. My hubby and I are last in both families and we have no kids. We make something easy and watch football all day long. And remember, that's part of the day too. Love PegEgg

[@onerainiday]

Bless you! Gratitude is the attitude.

[@AKD822]

Absolutely loved that you missed the butter in the pie and added after! True home cook accident. That's why you are my favorite cook to watch.

[@user-em2tq4fu9s]

Whenever I watch Nicole cooking, I pay attention and I go and get what groceries I need then I replay her back until I got the recipe down. She’s a great teacher because when I follow her directions my food turns out great❤

[@user-em2tq4fu9s]

I love Nicole, she makes everything look easy and not complicated. Nicole, you inspire me to cook

[@phyllisarnold9899]

This all looks so fantastic, but our family has to have our garlic mashed potatoes, also. Add those and you have perfection. 🦃

[@leahb1813]

I love Nicole’s energy! I just want to sit down and have cocktails with her!😂🥳😀

[@jelena7604]

I want one of those cranberry cosmos made with the cranberry sauce.

[@Niikki284]

I was literally saying to myself yesterday that Nicole’s probably going to make a Thanksgiving video and lo and behold here it is!! 👏🙌

[@clisagem]

I love the leftover turkey sandwich with dressing and cranberries on the sandwich with Dukes Mayonnaise-

[@annecollins1741]

Creamy Mac and Cheese with candied Yams are the staples on my Thanksgiving table. Along with some sweet potato pie.

[@cathyvelliquette3799]

I totally agree with you in a call to me. A turkey sandwich is so much better than the turkey on the day of Thanksgiving. It is one of my favorite things after Thanksgiving is over.!!!

[@sherrygaetke3968]

@@cathyvelliquette3799 we make turkey sliders on King’s Hawaiian buns!

[@ms.munchkin8264]

That's a small Thanksgiving dinner in my family. We make Turkey Ham Mashed potatoes Stuffing Mac and cheese Candied yams Jalapeno corn Roasted veggies Green bean casserole Dinner rolls Homemade Cranberry sauce Giblets gravy Turkey gravy Cheesecake Pumpkin pie Apple or peach crisp or a cobbler Banana pudding I do most of the cooking, but it's my passion, and I find it easy and therapeutic.

[@lizmiller2341]

We do a night before mashed potatoes. Just reheat the next day. Our family loves it.

[@tammyemalone-lh1tc]

You make it look easy. I also do everything the day before so i can visit the day of. Thanks for the recipes!!

[@cynthiamickle1521]

My family would revolt if there were no mashed potatoes!

[@Southerngirl0997]

That’s funny! My family would revolt if there was mashed potatoes! While we all adore them, they’ve never been a part of our tradition. I realize we’re the minority lol. 🦃

[@camiec7383]

Our family too. We love mashed potatoes 🥔!! 👏👏👏👏👏❤️💜🩵

[@HeidiWillToWin]

Same! Plus, my mom is allergic to sweet potatoes and yams, so we HAVE to have a mashed potato option (which, to be fair, my mama makes THE BEST mashed potatoes this side of the Mississippi, so it works out for all of us!). ❤

[@sheryl7837]

Seriously and so would I! ☺️

[@eimanaljahmi772]

I would too

[@RobertaReal7980]

Macaroni and cheese is my favorite side dish.

[@josifw]

Leftover turkey, Duke’s mayo, and two slices of white bread is all you need! Lettuce if you’re feelin’ fancy! Haha

[@ShirleyCollins-n4b]

Thank you so much, Nicole. Everything is always perfect that you cook. You are my favourite happy Thanksgiving.

[@navigatingthespectrum1513]

I agree 100% about the sides being the best and the turkey being better the day after as a sandwich.

[@cherrylissner7185]

No reason to pore through cookbooks, you just gave us the complete Thanksgiving menu in this one video. Thank you so much😊

[@dorisspecial3619]

Mama's cornbread dressing had so much sage, it was almost green. YUM!!

[@Dina-Dee119ps59]

THANK YOU! ♥️👍Those who are not brave enough to tackle a THANKSGIVING DINNER will ✨ shine with following this SPECIALTY!❤

[@LillyR539]

My favorite is all of it😊 but I do love my Cranberry Salad. It is different than your recipe. It is heavenly. Have a great one🦃🦃

[@tressalewis7004]

This looks amazing! You made this look way too easy…❤

[@hollyobrien4665]

Winner, winner Turkey dinner! Well done! Yummy 😋

[@candiceparker8272]

You always amaze me!! Happy Thanksgiving, girl!!

[@jeffmabry7775]

I love your big kitchen layout, it has that nice modern culinary look to it. It’s nice to have two gas range stoves.

[@gracenmercy579]

My husband loves sweet potatoes casserole and I will make this for him and the kids

[@maryallore478]

Nicole.....you nailed it!! Fabulous video, especially for those young people hosting their first holiday dinner. Lots of great tips! I couldn't agree with you more about the turkey.....I may have a sliver on my plate on the actual holiday, but come Friday morning as I watch all of the freaks fight the early morning traffic to catch the great deals on black Friday you will find me in my cozy little den, at my computer desk, in my pajamas with a cup of hot black coffee and a turkey sandwich on rye bread with extra mayo and black pepper!!

[@palomahealing5073]

You have the Best kitchen, it's like Heaven to me!!✨️☁️

[@ihowells2593]

I ❤ your cooking show. I recently discovered you a couple months ago. It’s fun/simple and real life in the kitchen. Thank you

[@missfrugalicious3590]

Love all of it, but I am responsible for bringing mashed potatoes and mac n cheese.

[@Magpie-1111]

For holidays, I think most of us want what we grew up with - the same dressing style, the same sides, the same desserts. We may pick up a different recipe or two as the years pass but for the most part it’s about family and memories. ❤

[@janie.anndunlap3610]

When the Grannies Pass THINGS CHANGE MOST PEOPLE 2nd 3nd Order Out or good out They Finally Realize WOW THAT IS TOO MUCH WORK WE KNEW OUR COUSINS THEY WERE SO IMPORTANT EXTRA BROTHERS AND SISTERS ❤ ALWAYS BE KIND ❤❤❤❤❤

[@julieshepherd4694]

Great video! Definitely saving this for Thanksgiving.

[@cathysutton3017]

My favorite dish is the dressing. You didn't make deviled eggs. 😄 I really enjoy watching you. I hope you have a Happy Thanksgiving.

[@wendipear]

I love all of your videos!!!!! You are one of my favorite chefs!!!

[@NSmith-cr4pm]

You are amazing!!! Enjoy your videos. Keep up the great cooking.

[@tondasouther6545]

Could you do an episode on your favorite pots pans and knives for us to be able to cook

[@patrussell364]

Hello Nicole, I was so intrigued by excited about watching your videos you are very fun to watch.You are funny and have a wonderful bubbly personality l am a new subscriber to your channel and I have been bing watching your videos and looking forward to many more l will be trying some of your recipes and sharing them with my daughter keep the videos coming lm excited to see what you do next 😊

[@lanceg133]

I get the biggest compliments on my cranberry sauce, I believe, because I spice it well with nutmeg, allspice, and mace. Don't forget to replace a portion of the orange juice with port as well!

[@debbielenoir5472]

Refrigerator tip: The sweet potato casserole can be stacked on top of the dressing to save room in the refrigerator. Interesting turkey recipe! My husband prefers brining then smoking the turkey on Thanksgiving Day.

[@douglashorsley6824]

Everything looks amazing, great job girl!!!

[@AnaMariaRamirez-g3y]

The best thanksgiving dinner, ill make it !!! Thanks

[@melaniewhittington7857]

Omg! Thank you for great ideas especially the turkey!

[@carmenf8825]

Everything looks delicious. Thank you for the video. Happy Thanksgiving 🎉

[@redbyron10]

I was hoping you were going to make Thanksgiving dinner and it looked PERFECT!!!!

[@Dina-Dee119ps59]

♥️YOU ARE AMAZING!👍

[@peggymann925]

She is so awesome, and so are these recipes!!!

[@neldahargo5933]

I'm with you on the sides but it's just me so this happens in small stages. every week I make a side with whatever main I'm having, freeze several single servings. for the big meal, I have chicken from the deli and many small containers of sides. I can keep this going till New Years.

[@gaylarussell2336]

❤ all them! I’m going make the cornbread dressing! Yummy ❤

[@donnamullins2089]

Wow your cooking was delightful and everything looks so delicious. How was the champagne gravy? Thank you Nicole. What time is dinner? I'll be there.

[@LillyR539]

Hey try bacon in the green beans you wont be sorry😊 wheres the mashed potatoes 😊

[@lesleywatkins1172]

We don’t have Thanksgiving in the uk, but your dinner menu is similar to our Christmas dinner, except we have Christmas pudding for dessert! 😊

[@loricameron4230]

Turkey dinner is not complete without mashed potatoes. I find making mashed potatoes the day of a bit stressful but there would be a revolt if there were no mashed potatoes with gravy. Sweet potatoes are considered a side but mashed are part of the main dinner.

[@MarieTOWNSEND]

Everything looks delish. I always add an Italian side dish. Just have to because that was what my family did and i do it too . In fact my family included a full on Italian along side the traditional Thanksgiving meal.

[@christinacira9104]

Just curious is this your home kitchen or where you work for all recipes? Wonderful tips!! Thank you!!

[@osenifabua1912]

She’s such a pro omg

[@bombaytk]

The greatest thing I've seen on the internet. I'm so hungry now

[@trudepettigrew7339]

Do the pumpkin bars freeze well? Everything looked wonderful.

[@suzannecarrier287]

Nicely done 👍🏻

[@barbararobinson4752]

Oh my goodness!! Looks awesome!

[@palomahealing5073]

This year I've seen a real interest in the Cornbread dressing!🌽

[@davidnixon5832]

nice work nicole...very good production and editing...

[@shannonwhite7605]

Give me alllll the southern sides... 🍽😋 the next day, Turkey sammie on fresh, soft white bread with mayo & lettuce, S&P!! 🦃🤎Yup! I agree!!💯

[@clevergirlhikes]

I think I'll make your Dutch apple pie instead of those desserts 'cause I ❤ apple pie 🍎🍏

[@JustTeeLLC-2025]

Wow that looks delicious!!!!!!!

[@yongkwon-peterson6189]

Thank you !❤️ 😊

[@cindycampbell4994]

Neat tip about the wings!!!

[@sonjabaker426]

Awesome video, ty!!

[@christinelee2127]

Epic video ❤🎉

[@tammyrollins2431]

I think it was a pretty good video for the beginners turkey dinner !! But most important is the turkey and there isn’t much about the the degree to cook it at and whether or not she turned down the temp the last hour or so ? So did she untent it at around 2 hours ?

[@st2778]

This may have been asked already , but can I freeze the green bean casserole and the sweet potato casserole? I am traveling but need to bring the food a full week ahead of time. Thanks!!

[@jessicaa5189]

Looks good

[@berviffy30]

Wow this is amazing, you are a trooper

[@amandamyers3307]

You had me at CRANBERRY SAUCE COSMO!! 🍸

[@juliedixon7421]

Nicole have you ever tried deep fried turkey, it is the best😊

[@sherylgauthier6122]

Gurl you did an excellent job. Everything looks beautiful and delicious. Yummy..❤❤😂

[@jules8910]

We HAVE to have our homemade (or from the Amish bakery) egg noodles that are cooked in the turkey broth! Mashed potatoes are mandatory.

[@kimberlymiller655]

I absolutely love you!!

[@janebarla]

How long do you bake the sweet potatoes in the oven & at what temperature?

[@jujulovesjesus7100]

for the pumpkin squares, can i use whipped cream cheese cake filling

[@tomsparks6099]

Amazeballs!

[@user-em2tq4fu9s]

I was surprised my comment got a thumbs up. Means a lot that your reading the feedback ❤️

[@silver700000]

mmmm lov it

[@chrisr.1803]

My favorite: cranberry relish! Throw everything in a food processor….bag-o-cranberries, one diced apple, one peeled and sectioned orange and however much sugar your heart desires. I use 1/3 cup of fake sugar. I believe the original recipe called for 2 cups of granulated sugar…which seems excessive to me! Either way it’s delicious!

[@FrisellFan01]

It's funny how you said the sides are where the action is.....I feel the same way I am always digging into the side dishes more than anything...and yes the turkey is much better the next day as a sandwich.....

[@KimBackus-h3b]

I like how you make your turkey

[@MsSister76]

My family would throw me out if the neck wasn't roasted with the turkey. Everyone fights over it. Great video!

[@kimberlymiller655]

I wish I could make my meal in 21 minutes:). 😮😂😂

[@camiec7383]

We like mashed potatoes and green beans and jellied cranberry sauce.

[@tammyrollins2431]

I didn’t see how long you put the oven temperature on for the turkey ? I rewound a few times am I missing something?

[@carolosborne126]

I couldn't find a recipe for the dressing? There is a link for the cornbread that goes into the stuffing.....

[@luannjohnson1382]

Who wouldn’t love that

[@CiCiWhit]

What brand knife did you use to carve the turkey?

[@Novemberbaby333]

What no mashed potatoes. Your table looks great.

[@pjesf]

How awesome is that? 👍🏻👏🏻❤️

[@darrenbrisson4336]

You're lying we already had thanks giving lol! best stuffing recipe ever take a whole loaf of white bread and rip it into pieces then in a fry pan with a half pound of butter start melting the butter and chop two onions and thinly slice three celery stalks and crush two garlic cloves and cook the veggies first then slowly ad the bread rolling it around the pan toasting and broening the bread and a pinch of oregano not too much tiny pinch and salt and pepper once you've done all that put a little water in the bottom of the bird for moisture in the bird and totally alumafoil the inside of the bird and put the stuffing in and close it up good put the bird in a aluminum tray and totally cover it cook it 2 hours or longer depending on size of bird at 350 any extra I'f you made lots just put in oven in alumafoil this was an old recipe from the château Laurier hotel in ottawa p.s I promise best stuffing you'll ever have

[@elizabethmaggard9466]

OMG!😋

[@linda7504]

Macaroni and cheese

[@laurindawaddle3695]

I noticed you didn't use butter on your turkey. Was there a reason why?
