Pumpkin Spiced Chocolate Clusters

These rich little morsels are the perfect ending to a beautiful dinner. The dark chocolate perfectly satisfies that craving for sweets after a big meal. The pecans, pumpkin seeds, and cranberries, along with the warming spices of pumpkin pie, pay tribute to traditional Thanksgiving ingredients. These morsels can be made well ahead of time and stored in the freezer until needed.

Potato and Yam Stacks

Thanksgiving isn’t complete for many of us without a potato dish, the comforting starchy staple we all adore. These stacks are the perfect handheld potato dish for your holiday grazing table. While garlic and rosemary are a fan-favourite flavour combo, the addition of the balsamic glaze adds a hint of sweetness and tang.

Stuffed Mushrooms with Fennel and Lentils

These pop-in-your-mouth stuffed mushrooms are the perfect addition to your Thanksgiving table. The combination of fennel with the lentils and mushrooms gives these bites a meaty taste that are actually completely plant based―and Thanksgiving grazers may never guess.

Stuffed Endive Leaves

These easy, yet elegant, handheld endive packages have all the flavours you need with salty bacon, sweet apple, fennel, and creamy beans, enfolded within and balanced by the bitterness of Belgian endive leaves.

Turkey Phyllo Cups with Brie and Cranberry Sauce

If you want a traditional Thanksgiving without the daunting task of cooking a turkey, this dish is for you. With these yummy handheld turkey pastry cups, you get all the Thanksgiving flavours without the overwhelming effort. Making the turkey filling a day or two ahead of time will make life that much simpler, allowing you to have a turkey dish on the table and ready to enjoy in less than half an hour. And, for an equally delicious plant-based version, you can easily omit the cheese and switch out the turkey for a veggie ground.

Savoury Pumpkin Buckwheat Beer Bread

Entice your family and friends into your home with the aroma of freshly baked bread, setting the tone for a cozy Thanksgiving dinner to remember. This easy bread recipe comes together quickly because it doesn’t need any time to rise. This savoury twist on a normally sweet loaf will be a welcome addition to your dinner table. Buckwheat flour lends itself well to the savoury flavour with its slightly earthy taste. Make this bread completely gluten free by choosing a gluten-free beer.

Strawberry Mango Basil Sorbet

Nothing reminds me of summer more than this combination of sweet strawberries, tropical mangoes, tart limes, and savoury basil. Fruit is nutrient dense, and mangoes are packed with vitamins A, B6, C, E, and K, as well as copper and magnesium. Not only is this simple sorbet a refreshing way to end a meal, it’s also a great way to boost your nutrient intake!

Bison and Black Bean Stuffed Peppers

Allowed to range freely and eat grass, rather than grain, bison have less fat than their cow counterparts, and their meat is less marbled than beef, meaning that fat is easier to opt in or out of. My family’s bison and black bean stuffed peppers contain lean, ground bison and high fibre black beans, creating a healthy, hearty twist on a comfort food classic!
