Who’s ready to get their Thanksgiving on! Get ready for a TON of fab Thanksgiving recipes, starting with these Garlic Roasted Potatoes, right here on What’s Gaby Cooking!
Omg you guys! We have so much to talk about today. First, Happy Monday!!
A: How on earth is it already November?
B: Thanksgiving is just around the corner. Being the obsessively organized person I am, I have already planned my entire menu. (I did it in September) It’s going to be epic, and I’ll be sharing all the recipes here, well before the big day, so you have plenty of time to plan your menu too!
C: One of my all-time favorite people, Ree from The Pioneer Woman, just came out with her latest cookbook and I spent the entire weekend drooling over every recipe. It’s called The Pioneer Woman Cooks: A Year of Holidays: 140 Step-by-Step Recipes for Simple, Scrumptious Celebrations and I’ve decided that I’m inviting myself over to her house for every holiday from here on out. Christmas, New Years, Valentine’s Day, Easter… you name it… all of her holiday menus are out of this world!
D: In honor of Ree’s gorgeous new book, she is offering up 3 signed copies!! Boooyah! We’re kicking off Monday with a bang.
E: I made a batch of her Garlic Roasted Potatoes yesterday and proceeded to fight my husband over who got the last bite. They are game changers – that is for sure!
F: If you haven’t already ordered yourself a copy, you absolutely should!! Like I said, this book is LOADED with fantastic holiday recipes for an entire calendar year, and each page is infused with Ree’s bubbly personality and humor. I’d like to jump right in and live somewhere between Christmas and 4 of July!

I’m making dinner for my family for the first time, so I am a little nervous!
I love waking up to watching the parades and then going over my sister-in-law’s for dinner with the entire family.
I’m looking forward to enjoying a simple meal with loved ones and making memories for young ones. I’m excited for Trader Joes’ brined turkey. Nearly impossible to ruin!
I am most looking forward to all the delicious food!
The end of the night when our whole family is done with other obligations, we gather at my mom and dads and eat dessert and leftovers. And we play games. I would love to win this for my mom- she talk about you all the time!!
Looking forward to spending time with family and deliciously brined turkey!
I love getting together with the whole family! Thanksgiving is the best holiday 🙂
I love the plethora of pies my family makes. Pie is the best part of Thanksgiving!
I always look forward to making pumpkin and pecan pies for Thanksgiving! Last year I tried my hand at the Pioneer Woman’s homemade pie crust. I have never been so happy with how the pies turned out! Also, my 22nd birthday is November 12 and I would LOVE Ree’s new cookbook!
Really looking forward to relaxing with my family.
I look forward to spending time with family, and cooking, laughing, and playing together. Holidays are the perfect time for us to reconnect with each other and spending quality time together.
Delicious stuffing!! My fav 🙂
Yum – these potatoes look delicious! Potatoes are definitely a staple to almost any holiday meal. In terms of food, I most look forward to pumpkin pie on Thanksgiving!
Lots of yummy food, time with the family, and a NAP!!
Living in a world of constant change, it’s always special to celebrate a Thanksgiving holiday that is filled with family traditions: past, present and future.
Looking forward to a Thanksgiving get-away weekend with my kids
Family and friends around the table.
What I am looking forward to the most about Thanksgiving is eating!!!! And my mom’s chocolate pumpkin mascarpone cake…
My sister-in-law loves to host Thanksgiving and she rivals Martha Stewart. Her home is beautiful…every detail is as though we are in a Better Homes and Garden spread…and yet we couldn’t be more comfortable and relaxed. She is an amazing hostess and the entire day is amazing…one of the highlights of my year!
Sitting around the table enjoying family and extended family. That is what Thanksgiving is all about, family and great food 🙂
Baked Yams.
I love being together with family and sharing a new recipe 🙂
Family, food and cool weather!
This year we are spending thanksgiving with old friends, I’m looking forward to all the laughter that will ensue.
I look forward to my wife’s cooking at Thanksgiving. This year should be super special since she has discovered Ree’s recipes.
The food!
Love cooking on Thanksgiving!!
This year we’re having Chanukah food for Thanksgiving dinner! My niece requested sweet potatoes and marshmallows, too! I love fixing what everybody likes!!
I’m so excited to see extended family…the last time I saw them was St. Patrick’s Day (for a parade). I love spending time with my family. 🙂
I am most looking forward to the gravy. 🙂
I love preparing good eats and spending time with family. That’s what thanksgiving is about!

So simple and yet so good!
Love these taters!
Awesome! I just bought the three type of potatoes to put on with a Pot Roast but now I am going to try this recipes. I LOVE the Pioneer Woman cooking show cause she helps me out a lot with her quick cooking ideas, especially when we have a round up to feed all the help. Love your recipes keep them coming.
The thing I most look forward to for Thanksgiving – the family time. I love the get togethers with everyone. Of course food is always in the mix but that’s top-off to good company! I know, such a blasphemous statement from a food blogger. :/
Mashed potatoes and gravy!!
I am most looking forward to turkey and stuffing…..
Mostly I look forward to a 4 day weekend. Pecan Pie, Pumpkin Roll, Green Bean Casserole & Stuffing are my favorites.
I am looking forward to taking off the whole week to spend it with my entire family!
Thanksgiving is when I get to have all the kiddos, in-laws and grandbabies under one roof. Lots of great food, fellowship, laughter and family time – can’t think of anything better to be thankful for.
BTW, I was fortunate enough to meet Ree on her first book signing tour — she is as delicious and delightful as her cookbooks!
Great giveaway and thanks so much for the opportunity — fingers crossed I get to add this book!
OK – yum! I know it sounds weird but I love brussel sprouts so much, I looked forward to preparing them in some new and creative way 🙂
the pies!
