Recipe Roundups
Having trouble finding recipes that everyone can eat for the holidays? Check out 27 Thanksgiving turkey and stuffing recipes for all dietary restrictions. Perfect for Christmas too!
There is nothing like the holidays to bring all the family together and sharebeautifulmoments over delicious food. But with all the food allergies and special diets family and friends may have, it is harder and harder to plan a Thanksgiving mealthat everyone can enjoy. I have you covered with lots of Thanksgiving Turkey and Stuffing recipes with options for all the dietary restrictions you may have to work around.
And with the holidays not far behind, these recipes will come in handy when you start planning your Christmas menu too.
AmericanThanksgivingVS Canadian Thanksgiving
I am in Canada and we celebrate Thanksgiving in early October.It is alsonot as much of a big dealhere compared to the American Thanksgiving. With my immediate family, it is traditionallythe weekend that we closed the cottage for the winter.
Because I am notAmericanandmy family makes a small affaire of it, you will find very fewrecipeson my blogfor Thanksgiving. I do have one funexception thought that I made years ago, check out this pretty neatRetro Aspic Green Bean Casserole.
The date is not the only element that separates the 2 countries celebration. Let’s explore them.
When do Canadians and Americans celebrate Thanksgiving?Canadian Thanksgiving is on the2nd Monday of October, while AmericanThanksgivingis on the 4th Thursday ofNovember.
So why do Canadians and Americans celebrate on different dates? Latitude and weather is the answer. Canada is considerably more north so the harvest season takes place a good many weeks before the Americans. Depending on where you are in America, the harvest can last a lot longer, particularly in the Southern States.
A few more differences
Canada only celebrates the bounty of the harvest, we do not have the association of the pilgrims, or sometimes religion, like in the US.
Americans will travel far and wide to spend Thanksgiving with family. This is not usually the case in Canada where Christmas takes priority.
Also, Canada does not have a Black Friday shopping frenzy. The internet is changing that, but in Canada, our big sale is on December 26th and is known as Boxing Day.

I just printed off a Cuban style turkey recipe. Will check out your link, too. Probably would have a family revolt if I made it on Thanksgiving, but it would be wonderful for Christmas, too! Great roundup!

LOL a revolt is not very much in the Thanksgiving spirit! I have to say I was drawn to the Cuban too. Let me know what you think if you try it!

Yum! You’ve got some delicious recipes showcased here. I love stuffing so the sausage/cranberry one and the wild rice with apricots definitely caught my eye!

I like how you shared Thanksgiving recipes for all kinds of diets. For me, I’m not a fan of turkey, so Thanksgiving is all about the sides. That’s why I was eyeing those stuffing recipes, and a lot of them sound really tasty. In particular, I’d like to try the cranberry apple walnut stuffing. Yum!

We don’t make a turkey either at Thanksgiving or Christmas. But I do hope I get an invite to one place a holiday season that will have some. Bt once is enough, like you, I love the sides. Hope you give a stuffing recipe a try.

Family meals always seem to bring together all the dietary restrictions at once! A great round up. I haven’t roasted turkey that often but have enjoyed the fact that it has fed so many!

I can’t believe the holidays are fast approaching. Thanks for the Canadian vs. American Thanksgiving tutorial. I really wish we didn’t have the Black Friday frenzy as part of our culture. 🙁

I know right, time goes by so fast. We do have Boxing Day, maybe not quite as huge but close. I was always jealous of Black Friday cause you can buy stuff for Christmas lol. But with the internet, we can get the deals to now. it does put a lot of commercialism on the holiday.
