    Toddler-Approved Thanksgiving Dishes

    by Elizabeth MacDonald November 15, 2021

    BRING ON THE FOOD! 

    It’s elastic waistband time, and I’m planning out our Thanksgiving menu. I just realized how exciting it will be to cook for more than just our immediate family this year! Tables everywhere will be overflowing with food, laughter, and friends.

    When planning your Turkey-Day be mindful of options that the youngest guests will enjoy. You don't want to force-feed anyone, causing meltdowns or unwanted moments. You can let them help prepare the table, the place cards, and even the blessing. Including the toddlers and young children in the holiday will set the foundation for a love of helping and being grateful.

     

    The Best Toddler and Kid-Friendly Thanksgiving Foods

    I have tried a few versions of each of these and included the recipe that was the most well-loved by kids in the age range of 3 to 11 years old!

    Deep-Fried Turkey – being juicier and more flavorful will help kids eat more protein!
    Crunchy Chickpeas 
    Cornbread Stuffing 
    Homemade Drop Biscuits
    Honey Butter 
    Gravy Mashed Potatoes 
    Scalloped Potatoes
    Broccoli, Rice, and Cheese Casserole 
    Baked Mac and Cheese
    Baked Green Bean Fries 
    Roasted Carrots    

     

    Even if your toddler eats a roll and a carrot, I’d call that a win. Pour the wine!

    I’m pretty sure you can figure out the dessert aspect, but if you are still baffled on sweets that kids will love, I recommend the following:

    Traditional Cookies: Chocolate chip or sugar are always a hit.

    Ice-Cream Sundaes  - you can figure this one out!

    Apple Pie  (Hands-down the BEST recipe) 

    Brownies

    ENJOY!
