I love Thanksgiving. What’s not to like about a holiday when you can wear jeans, eat great food and watch great Texas football?
I also love great cookbooks. Your Best Thanskgiving Ever by Tara Ziegmont is a wonderful Thanksgiving cookbook. The recipes are simple to follow but delicious. A few highlights of the book for me:
1. Planning- if you follow this guide, you won’t be rushing around like a crazy person that Thursday morning. You will actually enjoy the holiday!
2. Her comments on making too much food, dealing with the un-defrostable turkey, surprise guests and recipe experimentation are right on point (and really funny!)
3. The recipes are clear and easy to follow. And, she explains a lifelong mystery- what the heck is a chestnut and what the heck do you do with it?

Now I’ve got to run- I’m going to make the Slow Cooker Mashed Potatoes tonight!
Tara Ziegmont provided a review copy of this book. All opinons are my own.
What are you reading and where are you going?


This does seem like a helpful book to have and give as a gift. I’m thinking newlyweds! And I love how thorough, yet brief your review is…it gave me enough to interest me in purchasing but not too in depth that I would lose interest. Thank you.
Great view of a terrific book!
Great review! And this book looks like it will help you create the most amazing Thanksgiving ever. Problem is: If you do it this good, do you think everyone will ask you to host again next year? Ha! Ha!
