Ina Garten's favorite part of Thanksgiving is the sides, and she is sharing past classics and new favorites. There's Mushroom and Leek Bread Pudding, Homemade Gravy and Cranberry Fruit Conserve. She has new ideas for sprouts, sauteed, roasted, shredded and taste-tested by Bobby Flay, and Ina makes the best Haricots Verts with Dill and Hazelnuts. Then, there's amazing Celery Root and Apple Puree and Classic Mashed Potatoes with Three Variations, and Root Vegetable Gratin is make-ahead and marvelous. For roasted vegetables, Ina's got cauliflower, carrots, kale and a new favorite, Roasted Broccolini with Cheddar. Plus, Nigella Lawson, Chef Marcus Samuelsson, Jennifer Garner and Chef Massimo Bottura share their must-have Thanksgiving dishes. Forget the turkey -- Thanksgiving dinner is all about the sides.
Guy Fieri believes you don't need to break the bank to make delicious food, so he's invited his chef friends to the ranch to cook a frugal meal that's full of flavor. Aarti Sequeira makes a budget-friendly rice and lentil dish called Kichidi and some Sichuan-Style Broccoli with Sizzling Ginger Garlic Oil. The star of Aaron May's Chicken Thigh Fricassee is the flavorful and affordable cut of meat, and he keeps costs down and bellies full with crispy Hasselback Potatoes with Cheese. Rocco DiSpirito stirs up Homegrown Country Whiskey Sours to sip alongside Mushroom Dumplings and a succulent Pork Tenderloin with Pomegranate Glaze. Plus, Duff Goldman makes Hot Dog Bun Bruschetta with salami and melted cheese and performs magic with leftover Office Doughnut Bread Pudding.
Guy Fieri has an all-star lineup of chefs cooking game day grub in his ranch kitchen. Alex Guarnaschelli serves finger foods like the classic Pigs in a Blanket and her take on New England's favorite chocolate sandwich treat, Dark Chocolate Almond Whoopie Pies. Justin Warner makes savory Smoked Cauliflower Bites with Caesar Salad Spread and breaks out the chemistry set to create Spherefied Pickle Back whiskey shots. Marc Murphy takes advantage of the wood-fired oven for a Grilled Flatbread with Wild Mushrooms and an authentic Big Paella with Chicken and Shrimp. And Eric Greenspan makes Spicy Garlic Chicken Wings with Carrot Celery Chow Chow and Blue Cheese and then slathers his melted homemade American cheese all over Chorizo Chili Potato Chip Nachos.
