  1. I just subscribed. I am so glad that I found your website. I have been telling friends about it too.

  2. I’m a subscriber. Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday! I love my grandma’s stuffing and gravy. She makes a whole crock-pot full of gravy and it is so delicious!

  3. I subscribe to your emails and love reading them. Now you’re also on my facebook to share with other friends.

  4. I am an email subscriber and a dedicated page checker every day! lol I love your site, it’s made dinner at our home a lot more wholesome and affordable too!!! A Thanksgiving must have in my home is sweet-potato pie. Now we call it pie but the more I say that the more people say “hey! that’s not quite pie qualifying” haha It’s sweet potatoes (yams really) mashed up and I add some yummy ingredients to it. Then I bake it just to make it warm enough, add some tiny marshmallows (or big ones for fun) and when the marshmallows are browned from the broiler it’s done! My father would make it, and after he passed a few years back, i made sure to keep on with it 🙂

  5. I was a subscriber but somehow got unsubscribed last week – but I’m now subscribed again!! 🙂

  6. Must haves at our Thanksgiving is homemade noodles and of course my grandma’s stuffing. Go glad she taught me to make these delish foods.

  20. I have subscribed to your e-mail updates. My families Thanksgiving must have dish is homemade Pumpkin Pie!!

  21. My must have is Grandma’s dressing. Unfortunately she has alzheimers and no longer cooks but, I have have gotten pretty close to hers. The rest of the family seems to like it anyway.

    I also love some freshly made cranberry sauce!

  22. Must have Thanksginging dish is Apple/Cranberry casserole. You make it like apple crisp adding cranberries as well. It is great with Turkey.

  23. My must have is homemade mashed potatoes and gravy! I would take it as a dessert I like it so much. YUMMMMM

  24. My must have is homemade mashed potatoes and gravy. I could eat it for dessert I like it so much. YUMMMMM

  25. My fave Thanksgiving dish is my grandmother’s cornbread dressing. It’s made completely from scratch including the broth and the bread. Nothing else like it!

  26. Thanksgiving is never complete without mashed potatoes……I could live off of them for the rest of my life 🙂

  27. I must have pumpkin pie @ Thanksgiving! In fact, we just finished up an early pumpkin pie the other night and I told my husband that I could eat about 12 more of them! 😀

  28. Is it sad that my must-have dish is jellied cranberry sauce straight from the can? My mom will confirm this.

    Mashed potatoes and gravy are a close second 🙂

  29. Oh, I could REALLY use this! My must have is our family’s corn bake casserole. SOOOOOO good.

  30. Besides the requisite turkey, I love experimenting with different stuffing/dressing recipes. One year cornbread, another brioche. There are so many varieties!

  31. my must have is my mom’s homemade banana pudding – yum & the ham… & the mashed potatoes, greenbean cas, corn, bread… really I think everything is a ‘must have’ … : )

  32. i look forward to sweet potatoes and cranberries this year. i haven’t had an appreciation for them before really…

  33. OK. I subscribed so that I’ll get your posts via e-mail. I’m a follower, but I don’t usually check blogger every day.

    As for favorite Thanksgiving dish…mashed potatoes with gravy are a must for me!

  34. Lets see…there’s the gotta have stuffing and the gotta have mashed potatoes and gravy and the gotta have cranberry sauce!! LOL!! And I subscribe to Eat at Home through email/ RSS/FB!! 😀

  35. I look forward all year to my grandma’s homemade dressing! It is not Thanksgiving without it!

  36. My must have Thanksgiving dish is my gramma’s “Northern Dressing.” We live in AL but we eat MO -born dressing (bread, not cornbread like most people in the south). My mom was born in MO and my gramma brought the recipe with her! I could live off of her dressing!

  37. Must have Thanksgiving dish is pumpkin pie. We use my grandmother’s recipe which is sweet and custardy (no pie spice or cinnamon – just sugar and whipped egg whites which make it extra fluffy).

  38. I would say pie, but specifically, chocolate silk pie made with lots of Cool Whip. Not very traditional, but I love it!

  39. In 21 years of marriage I’ve never cooked a turkey! But it just wouldn’t be Thanksgiving without my husband’s turkey!!!

    (and then white bread, jellied canned cranberry sauce, and mayo for sandwiches!)

  40. My must have dish is homemade cranberry sauce! Nothing beats it. I guess it’s more of a side than a dish, but it counts!

  41. My must have Thanksgiving dish is mashed potatoes…with lots of turkey gravy. Yum!

  42. I just discovered your website and immediately subscribed. I am looking forward to all of your updates.

  43. My all-time favorite must-have dish at Thanksgiving dinner must be my mom’s turkey stuffing. It is always so moist and delicious. I wish mine would turn out half as good as hers! (I think it takes years of practice and tons of love to make!) Anyway, I am already subscribed to Eat At Home blog, via google reader, but I did subscribe again via email. I love your blog! I previously had a trial account at Plan to Eat and would so love to win a year’s subscription. I can’t afford to buy one at the moment because my husband is a full-time student and we still haven’t found a part time job for him, so little luxury purchases like a subscription to Plan to Eat are on the back burner for me for a bit. Anyway, great idea for a contest! Good luck everyone!

  44. I subscribed to your site!

    I’ve stopped by a few times already, but I’m looking forward to exploring your site more. The recipes look fantastic!

  45. I am a subscriber!!! not a lurker anymore…My favorite holiday dish is my brothers garlic Mashed Potatoes…Yum.

  46. Wow… favorite thanksgiving dish… hmmm my Mom’s warm, melt in your mouth parkerhouse rolls and green bean casserole. Never served together though as my Mom serves thanksgiving dinner and she doesn’t make green bean casserole. So I just host a girlfriend Thanksgiving meal and get both at my house {cause my Mom makes the rolls for my meal LOL}.

  47. I love the stuffing my Mom has always cooked, especially the stuffing that was baked in the turkey! Yum–I could eat a plate of it covered in turkey gravy!

  48. Ooooh Pick me, pick me lol!! I have been doing the 30 day trial and want to sign up for a year at the end of the trial period. I am so thrilled you are featuring them as I think it is wonderful!! Thanks so much for sharing!

  49. My MUST have dish at Thanksgiving is my mom’s potato salad. I don’t know why, it’s just something that HAS to be made or it’s not complete.

    I’m a subscriber!

  50. Must have dish “Sweet Potato Casserole”. I am a suscriber and this service looks wonderful! Would love to try it out 🙂

  51. And my absolutely MUST have holiday dish is baked corn pudding. My grandma always had this on the table for the holiday and we’ve carried on the tradition.

  52. Must have tradition for me-strawberry jello with bananas. I know a little out there, but my grandma always made it for me:)

  53. Mashed Sweet Potatoes! (I thought I did not like sweet potatoes until I made it with fresh sweet potatoes and used a recipe from foodnetwork. Now I cannot wait until we have sweet potatoes!

  54. Thanksgiving must-have is my great-grandmother’s recipe for dressing — includes homemade cornbread and turkey essence!

  55. I actually have two must haves….honey baked ham, spoiled, i know, and my mom’s “green slime”. It’s really lime jello surprise, but we’ve always called it green slime. YUM!

  56. I LOVE plan to eat, I am a current user and would LOVE LOVE LOVE to have a year of it paid for.

    So, this is my second entry to tell you that I already am a subscriber! Thanks for the opportunity!

  57. I just subscribed by email yesterday! I have to have potato salad and stuffing! (my moms will only do)

  58. My must-have food is green bean casserole! Last year I was due to have my baby within a few days of Thanksgiving, and I kept thinking that I would go into labor the day before and wouldn’t get to attend Thanksgiving dinner! lol. He ended up being born on the 14th, so I got my casserole.

  59. My mom’s stuffing! I haven’t had it for 10 years since we must always have T-day dinner at husband’s family house.

  60. Must have the raw cranberry-orange relish. From the Joy of Cooking, of course. No weird wiggly stuff from a can!

  61. Hey! I LOVE your blog…I’ve been busy busy lately, and just NOW found out about this! AHHHH…Well, Since you asked, my favorite Thanksgiving Dinner dish, is actually a dessert. My mom’s Chocolate Pie. It’s unlike any other chocolate pie I’ve ever had. It’s more like a chocolate mousse pie. Its made with mostly butter, eggs, unsweetened chocolate and sugar. Its pure bliss, and delish. It’s now a tradition for me to make it to bring to Thanksgiving. Since my birthday is in April, my mom always asks what kind of cake, and I always tell her no cake, but pie!!! It’s like Thanksgiving in April, that’s how much I love this pie!!! I’ve been a follower for about a month now, I’ll double check to make sure I am a follower just in case because I’ve been wanting to subscribe to Plan to Eat, but haven’t had the time recently! Thanks for all that you do! LOVE your work and words. I’ve actually added a button to your blog on my blog side-panel!!! Have a wonderful Halloween weekend! Again, Thanks!!!

  62. Ok, so excited about that sweet potato and apples slow cooker recipe I just read!
