#sponsored: Nothing makes me more thankful than a Friendsgiving meal shared with friends. 🦃🧡 Hosting a big meal like this doesn’t have to be stressful – just look for recipes that you can make in advance, like pies and cranberry sauce. To make things even easier, we also ordered a few appetizers, Brussels sprouts and our turkey from @WholeFoods. All we had to do was pick up our order the day before and heat it up before our guests arrived. Even the turkey was ready in just over an hour. This halfway homemade approach is such a lifesaver!

Are you cooking with your family this #Thanksgiving? Sharing our very favorite family image from #DoubleAwesomeChineseFood aka the upcoming #MeiMeiCookbook as we start planning the holiday - we're doing one family meal and also a #Friendsgiving for the Mei Mei team who might not have family nearby. Can't wait for all the eating! We've loved organizing and cooking Thanksgiving as a family for years - it was really how Mei Mei co-founders @mei23 and @ireneshiangli started cooking together (with an 8-course bacon-themed extravaganza of course🥓) - and we're always thankful for the time we get to spend together and for the abundant, delicious, slightly less bacon-centric food. 🍠🍗🥧🍽 At the same time, we know that a lot of families in Massachusetts struggle to get food on the table regularly, not just at Thanksgiving, which is why Irene is on the board of local hunger relief organization @ProjectBread. She wrote about what Thanksgiving means to our family on their website - check it out at the link in profile and consider making a donation to @ProjectBread to help feed families this Thanksgiving. 📷 by the awesome @michaelpiazza from our upcoming cookbook!

I’ve been hooked on Friendsgiving for the last three years. 🧡 It’s such a fun, smooth and stress free take on Thanksgiving. 🍁🍁 It’s still about the people and food, so choose carefully 😉 🥗Pick a group of your closest friends and plan a stress free delicious menu that anyone can make and share! Today I’ll show you how I make a vibrant platter of veggies, crunchy pita chips to serve with a divine Hot Broccoli Cheddar-Bacon Dip. 🥦🥦🥦 **✅Check my IG stories to see how I make this step by step! ✅** It starts with one of my favorite @panerabread soups—the Broccoli Cheddar Soup! Z🧡🥦 It’s creamy delicious as is, but imagine adding to it cheddar cheese, cream cheese, some crispy turkey bacon, more broccoli and spice.. OMG it becomes the BEST dip ever!! 🧡 You’ll find this Panera At Home Broccoli Soup at your local grocery store. I picked it up at Target today. Overall this incredibly delicious recipe and platter took exactly 20 minutes start to finish to make—how stress free and yummy does that sound?✅ If you’re hosting a Friendsgiving this year, make sure to start off your meal with this Hot Broccoli Cheddar-Bacon Dip. And if you’re invited, this platter and dip make the best potluck dish you can share 🙂 🧡🧡🧡 Either way, it’s good food made for sharing and celebrating the season so don’t miss out! 🍁🍁🍁 ✅Check the full Recipe here—->https://www.paneraathome.com/meal-ideas/types/crowd-pleasers/hot-broccoli-cheddar-bacon-dip #ad #PaneraatHome
