Potlucks can be a lot of fun, particularly during the holiday season. Make one dish, enjoy many dishes. These Thanksgiving Potluck Recipes include easy main dinner entrees, side dishes, and desserts. Use these Thanksgiving Potluck ideas for a friendsgiving or family gathering.

Thanksgiving Potluck Recipes

Potlucks can be a lot of fun, particularly during the holiday season. You’re only responsible for making one dish, but you get to enjoy many dishes! And this puts less stress on the hostess—after all, putting a Thanksgiving dinner together for a large group can be intimidating!

What should I bring to a Thanksgiving Potluck?

The best thing about a fall potluck is you immediately have a theme – Thanksgiving. That makes what to bring to a  Thanksgiving potluck rather limited. Thanksgiving pot luck ideas typically include the main dishes, vegetable side dishes and a savory dessert. It’s important when planning a Thanksgiving Potluck to come up with a Thanksgiving menu. This can be done where food is already listed and people sign up or you can list the food you plan to make and bring to the party. This will ensure no one brings the same recipe – It would be a bit scary to end up with 22 roast turkey breasts (those poor birds.)

Sign Up Genuis is an excellent tool for planning a Friendsgiving Potluck with family, coworkers and/and friends. You can invite guests, have some Thanksgiving games to bring, and allow them to sign up for something from a list of Thanksgiving Potluck recipe ideas. This can include a list of Thanksgiving dishes or a list of ingredients like whipped cream, vanilla ice cream, apples and more. In this case, everyone would gather and prepare the the Friendsgiving meal ideas together.

Tip: If you’re hosting or helping with a Friendsgiving dinner, check out our Friendsgiving Thanksgiving Ideas with tips and tricks to throw a memorable holiday meal with your friends.

Thanksgiving Potluck List

To help you create the best Thanksgiving Friendsgiving , we have put together some amazing Thanksgiving Potluck Ideas. You’ll find plenty of Thanksgiving recipes for interesting, delicious, can’t-miss tastes to take to your Turkey Day festivities. The hard part will be choosing which dish to try first!

Homemade Keto Pralines Pecan Candy Recipe

Keto Friendly Candy

Does using the word diet make anyone else crave something they can’t have. The trick to “dieting” is finding something that fits your desires but stays within your parameter. On a healthy ketogenic diet, there area  few rules.

Keto Rules:

  • 75% fat, 20% protein and 5% or less than 50 grams of carbs per day.
  • Focus on high-fat, low-carb foods
  • Restrict highly processed items and unhealthy fats.

The trick is to turn your fats into fuel while eating the food you love – like candy!

Can you have any sweets on Keto?

If you love sugar, the thought of keto might bring fear. It’s okay! You can have sugar substitutes on Keto and enjoy some of your favorite foods like brownies, cookies, ice cream, and candy and never tell they are sugar free desserts. One popular Keto sweeteners alternative is Swerve Sweeteners. They are excellent for baking with a Keto approved diet.

Side Note: You can even have Keto Chips and Snacks! Make or buy your own Keto snack recipes.

Can you eat sugar free candy on Keto?

Yes! Does that give anyone piece of mind? Enjoy some of your favorite sweet with adapted ingredients. You can of course, make your own Keto-approved Candy or purchase Keto candy in a store.

Where to Buy Keto Candy From A Store

We found a list of Keto Friendly Candy you can buy online. Make sure it is sugar free and low carb.

  • Keto Fat Bomb Snacks
  • Tom & Jenny’s Soft Caramel Candy with Chocolate and Sea Salt
  • Keto Fudge Brownie Mix
  • Keto Gummy Bears Candy
  • Keto Sweet Fish
  • Keto Hazelnut Spread
  • Keto Stevia Hard Candy

How to Make Keto Caramel Pecans Candy

A long time ago when sugar and heavy cream were cool, we made these Easy Micrwoave Pralines. The traditional ingredients in pralines are butter, sugar, brown sugar, cream and pecans. We of course  wanted the similar taste of this homemade candy, only something that was friendly to a Keto Diet.  Hence an adapted Keto Praline Recipe.

Directions

First, in a saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter.

Add the Swerve brown sugar and stir until combined.

Next, add vanilla extract and combine.

You can cook it for up to 7 minutes but I did this recipe at about 2 minutes as I wanted a thicker coating.

Bake and Take Recipes | Meal Trains and Meal Exchanges

Tired of preparing dinner each night? Bake and take recipes might be your busy mom solution! Details on how to get a weeks worth of throw in the oven meals for your family. What is a meal train, dinner ideas for neighbors, and hosting a girls night out party with a meal exchange ideas. 

Bake and Take Recipes

Bake and Take Recipes for Meal Trains and Meal Exchanges

Bake and take can mean one of many things. It can be an opportunity where people get together for a meal exchange. A bake can take can be an easy recipe for a new baby meal train. It can be a meal recipe you for bringing dinner to neighbors who have medical issue or are experiencing tough times.

Whatever the reason, we have the best bake and take recipes for parties, meal trains, neighbors and friends.

Bake and Take Party

Fist let’s address a Bake and Take Party. This is most appropriate when you are not in quarantine. Similar to a cookie exchange, only a meal exchange. Invite 5 to 7 people (too many people can be quite challenging.)

For a meal exchange party, each person brings the same dish x number of times. For example, for five people, each person brings the same meal in five different disposable foil pans. Exchange meals among friends and at the end of the night, go home with five different dinners for your family. This meal exchange can be done by prepping or baking the dish ahead.

Another option for a take and bake party is you bring your ingredients. Together, friends can sip wine and prep five dishes. Each person goes home with a meal prepared that they can make later that week for their family.

Bonus if your final bake and take meals can be frozen for easy prep on a busy night. For for a take and bake recipe exchange party, you will need Freezer Bags and/or Aluminum Disposable Pans.


What is a Meal Train

I meal train is an effective way to organize meal giving to a person or family for births, surgeries, illnesses and during tough times. A friend group or family community comes together to coordinating dropping off a home-made meal for a family who could use help.

If cooking is not an option, alternatively, you could coordinating restaurant delivery (like pizza or a local restaurant) or send a restaurant gift card for the person/family to use at their own time and need.

Mealtrain.com is a great resource for creating a group meal sign up, organizing meal giving, and scheduling meals to a calendar.

Bringing Dinner to Neighbors

If 2020 has taught us anything, it’s the importance of those in close proximity like immediate family and neighbors. Bake and take recipes are great for neighbors. You can rotate the responsibility of meals, each person assigned a different night of the week. You can also, bless an elderly, sickly or a neighbor in trouble with the gift of a home cooked meal.

Bringing Dinner to Elderly Neighbors

Consider hosting a bake and take party for the neighborhood or create a meal train for a neighbor who could a little extra help.

Social Distance Meals

Let’s take bake and take a step further. During quarantine and times of distancing, social distance meals are an option. Again, choose 5 to 7 people and each person is assigned a day.

The social distancing parties can work one of two ways. Let’s use our party of five people again.

Social Distance Meals

Option 1

Each person is assigned a day. On your assigned day, that person prepares (and bakes) five of the same dinners. They drive to five separate houses leaving the dinner on the step or front porch. This gives each party goer five nights of meals, only preparing dinner one night.

Option 2

Similar to a meal train, each person signs up for one day to bless a friend/neighbor in need with a meal. That person is assigned the job of putting a meal on the porch for the calendar date they have scheduled.

Bake and Take Recipe Ideas

For bake and take recipes, it is very important to know allergy and diet restrictions. We looked for easy recipes, casserole dishes, or throw in the oven meals that were free from many common allergies. Before hosting a bake and take party or meal train, get each persons dietary restrictions and any foods for which they may have an allergy.

Growing up, did your mother love her pressure cooker? I remember how much my mother insisted I had a pressure cooking added to my wedding registry.

Is Instant Pot Worth It?

Is Instant Pot worth it? It really depends. If you are someone who would rather prep a meal in the morning and let it cook all day, The Slow Cooker might still be your best friend. However, with the Instant Pot, you can still get that savory, slow cook taste in 5 to 30 minutes! If you are someone who prefers 30 minute (or less) meal preps in the evening, this programmable pressure & multi cooker is your solution!

Instant Pot Sizes

First let’s talk Instant Pot Sizes. For me, this is actually really important. We are a family of seven (with four hungry boys and two pre-teens), so a Instant Pot Ultra Mini is going to be terrible for my family. Instant Pot comes in three sizes so it’s really important to discover which Instant Pot is best for my family.

What Size Instant Pot Do I Need?

Help! Which Instant Pot is right for me? Figuring out which cooker works best for your family can be tricky and the Instant Pot website is actually very helpful.

The first thing you need to ask yourself is how big an Instant Pot do you need? It is important to know, there are three Instant Pot sizes – Mini, 6 quart and 8 quart. Within each sizing, there are four to eight different styles and features. That means, currently, there are 17 different Instant Pot Sizes and Styles. How do you possibly choose the right one?
