Looking for the best Thanksgiving side dishes? This year I rounded up some Thanksgiving side dishes that you can make ahead, put in the slow cooker, or even make last minute. This line up is a great addition to any Thanksgiving meal!
Creamy Make-Ahead Mashed Potatoes cannot go wrong on such a busy day. There’s a lot of cooking going on and who wants to spend time fussing over potatoes at the last minute? Not me, and now you don’t have to either!
Cranberry Orange Sauce only takes 15-20 minutes to make, can also be made ahead, has only a few ingredients and rounds out the meal!
Quick Yeast Rolls are a tried and true recipe that is handed down generation after generation. These quick yeast rolls use pantry ingredients, they’re airy, spongy, light, and a little sweet! The perfect addition to your Thanksgiving meal.
Scratch Green Bean Casserole is also a delicious addition to the meal. No canned soup used here either. This recipe is made with a homemade creamy mushroom sauce as well as homemade crispy onions. Talk about indulgent!!
Twice Baked Sweet Potatoes are a unique and fun addition to the Thanksgiving meal. Maple mashed centers are topped off with a toasted oat and pecan crumble. It’s like having a little dessert too!

Make-Ahead Stuffing is yet another way to free up your oven space on turkey day. It can be made up to three days ahead, you can choose to stuff it into the turkey or just bake it in the dish the day of. Talk about a great time saver!
Slow Cooker Creamed Corn is also a time saver and frees up the oven space. Just toss all the ingredients into the crock pot and in no time you have delicious creamy corn to go along with the turkey. No mess and less stress!
Gravy without any scrapings means you don’t have to worry about the turkey getting done first. This quick, easy and delicious gravy can be made in a matter of minutes or even ahead of time.
Pumpkin Crunch can be considered a side as well as a dessert. It has a custard style base that is topped off with pecans and it is quite divine!
