www.bittmanproject.com

Very few of us are reinventing the wheel when we head to our kitchens to prepare a Thanksgiving meal, but there’s always room on the table for something new. Here are plenty of options for more good food — for every kind of cook.

This year, we have a litany of classics and a handful of new recipes too: more vegan alternatives for turkey. A couple of salad updates from the revised How to Cook Everything Fast. New squash and sweet potato recipes. A few updated and easy desserts.

Read on for Thanksgiving inspiration and don’t forget the vast collection of recipes in the Bittman Project archive. Paying members have access to all recipes.
